Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to set aside the dismissal of a Civil Judge for alleged gross misconduct. The court found that the disciplinary proceedings lacked proper adherence to procedural safeguards, which are essential for ensuring fairness in such cases. Consequently, the dismissal was deemed unjustified, and the respondent was reinstated.
