Case Summary: H.V. Lingappa v. Karnataka State Road Transport Corp. On March 26, 2001, the Supreme Court heard H.V. Lingappa's Special Leave Petition against a High Court decision regarding his dismissal for alleged misconduct (allowing passengers to travel without tickets). The Industrial Tribunal had found charges unproven and ordered reinstatement with full back wages; the Single Judge reduced this to 50% back wages; and the Division Bench eliminated back wages entirely. The Supreme Court granted special leave, allowed the appeal, set aside the Division Bench judgment, and restored the Single Judge's decision awarding 50% back wages, finding no cogent grounds to deny back wages when charges were factually unproven.
