Chairman/Managing Director, U.P. ... vs Ram Gopal

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to reinstate Ram Gopal, citing the principles of natural justice and the lack of reasons for termination under Section 14 of the U.P. State Electricity Board Service Regulations. The Court emphasized that the absence of justification for termination, as established in prior cases, necessitated reinstatement. The appeal by Uttar Pradesh Power Corp. Ltd. was dismissed, affirming the lower court's ruling on equitable grounds.
