Case History
Case Summary: C.A. No. 007939/2001 S. Gurucharan Singh v. G.M., Ordnance Factory Project (25 February 2003) Crane driver Singh was dismissed in 1993 after a cotton swap was found in his tiffin box while leaving an ordnance factory. The Central Administrative Tribunal modified the dismissal, ordering reinstatement without backwages. The High Court reversed this, restoring dismissal. The Supreme Court allowed Singh's appeal, finding that while his act constituted misconduct, there was insufficient evidence of deliberate theft intent. The Court set aside the High Court's order and restored the Tribunal's reinstatement order as just and fair. No costs awarded.
