The HC dismissed the petition and upheld the Tribunal's impugned order, finding that the statutory and policy prerequisites for placing the respondent's file in a sealed cover were not satisfied. The court held there is no pending departmental proceeding against the respondent, no charge-sheet filed in any criminal proceeding, no FIR pending by the CBI, and no completed investigation resulting in prosecution; consequently, the limited exception permitting sealed-cover disclosure does not apply. Given absence of admission of guilt, absence of suspension or active disciplinary process, and no charge-sheet antecedent to a DPC meeting, judicial intervention to open a sealed cover was unwarranted and the petition was dismissed.
