Case History
Case Summary: State of U.P. v. Harendra Kumar (C.A. No. 007140/1999) Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the State of U.P.'s appeal on 6 February 2003, setting aside the High Court's order and restoring the disciplinary authority's dismissal order against constable Harendra Kumar for consuming liquor on duty and abusing another constable during terrorist operations. Key Finding: The Court rejected the State Public Service Tribunal's finding of "non-application of mind" by the disciplinary authority, holding that the dismissal order clearly demonstrated proper consideration of the case and a show cause notice had been provided to the respondent before the final decision. Judgment: The Court found no grounds to modify the punishment, as both the disciplinary authority and Tribunal agreed the sanction was not disproportionate to the proven charges.
