Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to reinstate Dr. Samrat Sharma, an Assistant Professor, after his termination was found to be unjust. The Court emphasized the importance of following due process in disciplinary actions, as outlined in the principles of natural justice. It was held that the Enquiry Committee's findings were not substantiated by adequate evidence, and thus the termination was quashed, reinstating the respondent with all consequential benefits.
