casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Rajesh Kumar v. Union of India (C.A. No. 7353-7354/2009) Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed Rajesh Kumar's appeals on November 11, 2021, upholding the High Court's decision and the termination of his services. Facts & Decision: Rajesh Kumar was appointed as a Sub-Inspector in Delhi Police in 1994 but was terminated during probation in August 1996 after it was discovered he was an Army deserter (since 1993) and had suppressed this information in his attestation form by marking "Not Applicable." The Court held that during probation, employers can terminate temporary appointees without conducting a formal inquiry when material information is suppressed, as termination simpliciter requires no pre-termination hearing. The Court cited precedent establishing that non-disclosure or false information itself constitutes sufficient grounds for service termination.
