casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: KESHAB CHANDRA SAHA v. UNITED COMMERCIAL BANK Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed both special leave petitions—the petition against the 2008 judgment was rejected as barred by excessive delay (1,046 days) and on merits, while the petition against the 2012 judgment was dismissed on merits. The Court upheld the bank's right to proceed with departmental inquiry and disciplinary action despite the petitioner's acquittal in the related criminal case. Key Finding: The Court held that acquittal in criminal proceedings (for lack of evidence under Sections 468/471/420 IPC) does not prevent a disciplinary authority from continuing departmental proceedings and imposing punishment, and delay in inquiry proceedings alone cannot nullify them.
