casestatus.in Summary

SUMMARY This Gauhati High Court judgment addresses a batch of writ petitions challenging departmental proceedings initiated against multiple government servants based on reports from one-man commissions of inquiry into exam malpractices in Assam Public Service Commission (APSC) examinations. Key Decision: The court ruled that the Commission of Inquiry reports violated the petitioners' statutory rights under Sections 8B and 8C of the Commissions of Inquiry Act, 1952, by failing to provide them proper procedural safeguards during the inquiry process. The court held that these findings in the reports cannot be used against the petitioners in any disciplinary or criminal proceedings. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
