    Case Summary: Sujit Kumar v. State of Bihar Court Decision: The Patna High Court allowed the writ petition and set aside the dismissal order against Revenue Karamchari Sujit Kumar, finding the entire departmental proceeding vitiated due to gross procedural violations under Bihar C.C.A. Rules, 2005. Key Reasoning: The court found that the disciplinary proceeding violated natural justice principles: no witnesses were produced to support charges despite the memo of charge lacking particulars, the enquiry report was never supplied to the petitioner, the presenting officer himself stated satisfaction with the petitioner's explanation yet charges were still found proved, and the disciplinary authority dismissed the petitioner without addressing his defense. The court remitted the matter for fresh proceedings from the issuance of charge memo stage, to be completed within six months.
