2017 (11) TMI 2021 - HC - Indian LawsValidity of action of the management of Eastern Railway, Danapur in denying absorption of workmen S/Shri Brajesh Kishore Sinha and others - HELD THAT:- In SN. MUKHERJEE VERSUS UNION OF INDIA [1990 (8) TMI 345 - SUPREME COURT], the Supreme Court held that irrespective of the fact whether the decision is subject to appeal, revision or judicial review, the recording of reasons by an administrative authority by itself serves a statutory purpose viz., it excludes chances of arbitrariness and ensures a degree of fairness in the process of decision making. It is well settled by now that reason is the life of law. It is an indispensable component of a decision making process. A nonspeaking and non-reasoned order smacks arbitrary exercise of judicial or quasi-judicial or even administrative power. The impugned award cannot be sustained - Petition allowed.
