2014 (5) TMI 1160 - SC - Indian LawsDenial of natural justice - Whether the High Court is justified in issuing the directionse solely on the ground that non-supply of the advice obtained by the disciplinary authority from the UPSC and acting on the same amounts to violation of principles of natural justice? - Held that:- In view of the aforesaid, we respectfully agree with the decision rendered in S.K. Kapoor's case [2011 (3) TMI 1633 - SUPREME COURT] wherein held although Article 320(3)(c) is not mandatory, if the authorities do consult the Union Public Service Commission and rely on the report of the commission for taking disciplinary action, then the principles of natural justice require that a copy of the report must be supplied in advance to the employee concerned so that he may have an opportunity of rebuttal. Thus resultantly decline to interfere with the judgment and order of the High Court. As a result, the appeal, being devoid of merit, is dismissed.
