UNION OF INDIA vs BISHAMBER DAS DOGRA

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Calcutta High Court which quashed the removal order of a CISF employee, citing violations of principles of natural justice as the enquiry report was not provided to the employee, nor was he given a chance to object. The Court emphasized that past conduct cannot be considered in isolation without due process, referencing Rule 34 of the CISF Rules. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the lower court's ruling that procedural fairness was not observed in the disciplinary proceedings.
