U.P. STATE ROAD TRANSPORT CORP. vs SHIVAJI

The Supreme Court upheld the Labour Court's decision regarding the termination of the respondent's services as a driver, affirming that the domestic inquiry was valid and the termination was justified under the principles of natural justice. The Court noted that the respondent intentionally collided with a private barrier, causing injury to a third party, which constituted serious misconduct under the relevant service rules. The Court dismissed the appeal, confirming the Labour Court's finding that the termination was legal and valid, and the respondent was not entitled to any relief.
