Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court overturned the High Court's decision that had set aside the dismissal of Sri C. Nagaraju from his position at Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited. The court found that the evidence presented, including the charge of demanding illegal gratification, warranted the dismissal. The ruling emphasized the importance of maintaining integrity within public service and upheld the disciplinary action taken against the respondent.
