casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Wazir Singh v. Govt. of N.C.T. of Delhi Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed Wazir Singh's Special Leave to Appeal petition on 09/04/2001. The Court upheld the High Court's order dismissing his writ petition challenging his removal from police service. The Court found that Singh's misconduct—consuming beer while on duty at a crime-infested border check post in Ghaziabad in 1990, and supplying alcohol to civilians—constituted grave misconduct rendering him unfit for police service. The Court rejected his argument that the disciplinary authority's order should have explicitly used the phrase "unfit for police service," holding that the findings of grave misconduct were themselves sufficient to justify removal.
