Zakirhusain Ibrahim Shaikh vs Divisinal ControllerDC MSRTC Mumbai Division, and ors. Advocate - Adv Shubhada Mokal — 7/2025

Summary The Labour Court at Alibag held that while the departmental enquiry against the MSRTC bus driver was conducted fairly and in accordance with natural justice principles, the enquiry officer's findings were perverse. The court found that imposing dismissal punishment for the same misconduct after already stopping the driver's yearly increment for six months violated principles of natural justice and equity, constituting unlawful double punishment.
