casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court dismissed the Kerala Water Authority's Special Leave Petition challenging the High Court's order that quashed the dismissal of respondent Vijayambika, finding that the dismissal order was never operationalized before her superannuation on 01.08.2017 due to non-compliance with Public Service Commission consultation requirements. The Court granted the petitioner liberty to proceed afresh if Vijayambika's pending criminal appeal before the High Court is dismissed and her conviction is sustained. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
