casestatus.in Summary

SUMMARY The Gauhati High Court invalidated findings from two inquiry commissions that violated procedural rights while ordering continuation of disciplinary proceedings against state employees. The court determined that the commissions violated Sections 8B and 8C of the Commissions of Inquiry Act, 1952 by failing to afford petitioners statutory rights to cross-examine witnesses and present defense evidence, rendering all observations regarding their conduct unusable against them. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
