Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the High Court dismissing the appellant's challenge against her compulsory retirement, which was based on findings of corruption under the Gujarat State Judicial Service Rules. The Court found that the Enquiry Officer's report, which held the appellant guilty of demanding illegal gratification, was supported by sufficient evidence. The Court emphasized that the administrative action taken by the High Court was in accordance with the principles of natural justice and did not violate any statutory provisions.
