Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the exercise of revisional power by the State Government under Rule 13 of the U.P. Government Servants (Discipline & Appeal) Rules, 1999, confirming the dismissal of the appellant for serious financial irregularities. The Court found that the Corporation had adopted these rules, thereby granting jurisdiction to the State Government to intervene in disciplinary matters. The Court dismissed the appeal against the High Court's decision, affirming the legality of the dismissal order issued by the Managing Director of the Corporation.
