    Case Summary: WP(C) No. 3294/2025 The High Court of Jammu & Kashmir allowed the petition of Rafiq Ahmad Dhobi, an employee who served the J&K Cable Car Corporation for 30 years until superannuation on 30.11.2022. The court quashed the corporation's order rejecting his claim for terminal benefits (gratuity and leave salary) and directed release of these benefits within two months, with 6% annual interest if delayed. The court held that while no departmental inquiry or criminal prosecution was initiated against the petitioner, the corporation wrongfully withheld retiral benefits citing missing documents—documents that were handed over to the Anti-Corruption Bureau by another corporation employee, not the petitioner. The court found such withholding violated the petitioner's constitutional right to property without due process of law.
