Judgment text excerpt

The petitioner challenged his dismissal from service by Punjab National Bank, alleging violations of natural justice and breach of the PNB Officer Employees' (Discipline and Appeal) Regulations, 1977. The core issues involved the denial of access to documents, refusal to examine witnesses, and the failure to provide a copy of the enquiry report before the punishment order. The court examined whether these procedural lapses vitiated the domestic enquiry and the subsequent dismissal.
