https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=173488 A police officer's heavy drinking while on duty, while armed with a service revolver, together with drunken roaming in public and abuse of a medical officer, was treated as gravest misconduct under Rule 16.2(1). The rule was read to permit dismissal for a single act of serious delinquency, because "acts" is not confined to repeated misconduct. The separate reference to continued misconduct, incorrigibility, and pensionary considerations was treated as an independent limb and not as a limitation on the power to dismiss for grave misconduct. Long service and prospective pension did not require a lesser penalty where discipline in a disciplined force was seriously breached. en-us Fri, 24 Jul 1992 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 10 Dec 2025 20:43:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=173488 A police officer's heavy drinking while on duty, while armed with a service revolver, together with drunken roaming in public and abuse of a medical officer, was treated as gravest misconduct under Rule 16.2(1).
