    Case Summary: WRIA/3479/2026 Petition Admitted with Stay Order Raj Shekhar Upadhyay's writ petition challenging a disciplinary charge-sheet dated 31.01.2026 has been admitted, with the court finding a prima facie case in his favor. The High Court of Allahabad has stayed the effect and operation of both the impugned office order and charge-sheet issued under Article 351-A of the Civil Service Regulations. The court found two critical defects: (1) the Governor's sanction was not obtained as mandatorily required—only the Departmental Minister's approval was granted; and (2) the proceedings are time-barred, as disciplinary charges were issued on 31.01.2026 regarding events from January-February 2021, exceeding the four-year limitation period specified in Article 351-A. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
