    The High Court of Chhattisgarh quashed the state's order canceling Sunil Kumar Gupta's compassionate appointment as a Peon, finding the cancellation order stigmatic in nature and passed without conducting a departmental enquiry or granting him a hearing. The court reinstated the petitioner with continuous service benefits (excluding back wages) while permitting authorities to conduct a fresh enquiry with proper opportunity to be heard, as mandated by constitutional protections and judicial precedent. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
