Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to reinstate Pandey Gajendra Prasad, a Railway Judicial Magistrate, after finding that the charges against him were not substantiated. The Court emphasized that the procedural safeguards under Article 311(2) of the Constitution were not followed in his removal, which constituted a violation of his rights. The Court ordered the payment of 40% back wages and allowed him to represent for the remaining 60%.
