Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the U.P. State Public Service Tribunal, which had set aside the disciplinary action taken against Rajit Singh, a Junior Engineer, for alleged financial irregularities. The court found that the Tribunal had correctly assessed the evidence and concluded that the disciplinary proceedings were not conducted in accordance with the principles of natural justice. As a result, the appeals by the State of Uttar Pradesh were dismissed, affirming the Tribunal's order.
