Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the termination of the first respondent's service was invalid due to the lack of mandatory consultation with the Public Service Commission as required by service rules. The Court upheld the Administrative Tribunal's order, allowing the claim petition and setting aside the dismissal while granting only retiral benefits from the date of termination to the date of superannuation, without any back wages. The Court directed that the computed benefits be disbursed within three months.
