Summary: UPSC v. Jagannath Mishra (C.A. 675/2000) The Supreme Court reversed the Tribunal and High Court's decisions, finding that respondent Mishra facilitated copying in the 1995 Indian Engineering Service examination by allowing another candidate to copy his Civil Engineering answers. Though no invigilator report existed, the Court's personal examination of answer papers confirmed copying and connivance. The Court upheld misconduct findings but reduced the debarment period from 10 years to 5 years. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
