High Court Draws a Red Line on Departmental Inquiries

BIG WIN FOR EMPLOYEES | जबरदस्त  फैसला 
High Court Draws a Red Line on Departmental Inquiries 

Can an employer dismiss an employee only on the basis of documents, without examining a single witness? The Jharkhand High Court has answered with a firm NO.

In a landmark judgment, Justice Deepak Roshan set aside the dismissal of Abhai Kumar, a former Central Coalfields Limited (CCL) employee who had served for nearly 39 years with an unblemished record.

Just before his retirement, Kumar was accused of obtaining employment fraudulently. An inquiry was conducted with 18 hearings, yet not a single oral witness was produced by the management. The dismissal was based solely on documentary evidence.

The High Court held that a departmental inquiry is a quasi-judicial proceeding, and documents do not prove themselves. Their authenticity and relevance must be established through the testimony of competent witnesses. Relying only on documents, without giving the employee a meaningful opportunity to challenge the evidence, violates the principles of natural justice and fair procedure.

The Court quashed both the dismissal order and the appellate order, directing CCL to release all terminal and retirement benefits, including gratuity, provident fund, pension under CMPS-1998, leave encashment and other dues within 12 weeks.

Key Takeaway:
No witness = No proof.
No proof = No valid punishment.

This judgment reinforces the settled principle laid down by the Supreme Court in cases such as Roop Singh Negi v. Punjab National Bank and State of Uttar Pradesh v. Saroj Kumar Sinha—a departmental inquiry cannot become a mere paper exercise.

The report identifies the employee as Abhai Kumar, the employer as Central Coalfields Limited (CCL), and the judgment as delivered by Justice Deepak Roshan. The ruling emphasizes that documentary evidence alone cannot sustain disciplinary charges without oral evidence establishing those documents.

Expected DA for Bankers from Aug'26

Expected DA Calculation Updated on 30.06.26 on the basis of CPI for the month of Apr'26 with the assumptions of CPI for the months of June'26 & Jun'26. The CPI for the month of May'26 announced on 30.06.26 as 150.8 with an increase of 0.90 points from Apr'26. (as per revised base year 2016) (The base year was changed from Oct 2020) 

  1. Keeping in view of recent CPI announced , we may assume there would be an increase in CPI index by 1.00 points in the next month. Accordingly, on this assumption, we may expect there would be an increase of 2.10% DA in terms of 12th BPS on revised pay. Total 27.80% DA will become payable from Aug'26.
  2. On assumptions if there is an increase in CPI index by 0.80 points in the next month, we may expect there would be be an increase of 2.04% DA in terms of 12th BPS on revised pay. Total 27.74 percentage of DA will become payable from Aug'26.
  3. On assumptions if there is an increase in CPI index by 0.70 points in the month, we may expect there would be be an increase of 2.00% DA in terms of 12th BPS on revised pay. Total 27.70 percentage of DA will become payable from Aug'26.

Key Highlights:

✅ PLI agitation has been kept on hold, but the legal battle is still underway.
✅ UFBU has warned of immediate strike action if the Government implements the unilateral PLI scheme for Scale IV & above officers.

✅ Pension updation and other retirees’ issues remain on UFBU’s agenda.

This is a strategic pause—not the end of the movement. Bank employees can expect further developments after discussions with the new DFS Secretary and the upcoming High Court hearing.
