Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's interference in the disciplinary proceedings was unjustified, as the charges against the respondent were serious and proved beyond doubt. The Court emphasized that the High Court's role under Article 226 of the Constitution is limited, and the findings of the Enquiry Officer should not be disturbed. Consequently, the Supreme Court set aside the High Court's order, restoring the dismissal of the respondent from service, thereby allowing the Civil Appeal.
