casestatus.in Summary

Summary The Gauhati High Court ruled that a One-Man Inquiry Commission violated the statutory rights of multiple petitioners under Sections 8B and 8C of the Commission of Inquiry Act, 1952, by failing to grant them proper opportunity to cross-examine witnesses and adduce defense evidence during inquiries into exam malpractices. The court held that while the Commission's reports cannot be used to initiate disciplinary proceedings against the petitioners, it allowed the state to continue disciplinary actions based on other materials, directing periodic reviews of suspension orders within 45 days to ensure compliance with constitutional protections on human dignity. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
