Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of false information provided in the Verification Roll under Rule 14(b) of the Central Reserve Police Force Rules, 1955. The Court held that the appellant's failure to disclose a prior criminal case, despite being discharged, constituted suppression of factual information, justifying termination of service. The Court emphasized that the obligation to provide accurate information is critical for maintaining integrity in public service, affirming the authority's decision to terminate the appellant's employment.
