Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the disciplinary action against Rajendra Yadav, a Police Constable, for misconduct under the Police Act, finding that he demonstrated gross negligence and tacit approval of corrupt practices by accepting bribes. The Court noted that the inquiry report indicated that while one charge could not be proved, the appellant's participation and tacit approval of the misconduct were established. The Court affirmed the decision of the Deputy Inspector General of Police, thereby dismissing the appeal.
