Case Summary: The Gauhati High Court heard an appeal by the Food Corporation of India (WA/62/2026) challenging a May 2025 single judge's order that set aside disciplinary punishment against a deceased employee, Late Bhuban Chandra Basumatary, and directed notional monetary benefits to his heirs. The employee faced charges for serious irregularities (15% storage loss vs. 0.5% permissible limit) at FCI's Dibrugarh depot in 1997-1998 and was punished with reversion to a lower post in 2003; he challenged only the second inquiry's punishment and died in 2016, after which his family continued the petition. The case was adjourned for further hearing on 26.05.2026 with FCI arguing the lower court was driven by sympathy rather than merit. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
