https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=194108 A rule permitting termination of a permanent civil servant's substantive tenure by notice, without the safeguards required for dismissal or removal, was treated as constitutionally impermissible where it operated as a penal deprivation of the servant's accrued right to hold the post. The Court also held that a classification exposing railway servants to unguided termination, without an intelligible basis or rational policy, offended the equality guarantee. The decision therefore treated the termination-by-notice provisions as inconsistent with both Article 311(2) and Article 14, and the validity of such rules could not be sustained against those constitutional protections. en-us Thu, 05 Dec 1963 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 29 Aug 2017 13:21:46 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=194108 A rule permitting termination of a permanent civil servant's substantive tenure by notice, without the safeguards required for dismissal or removal, was treated as constitutionally impermissible where it operated as a penal deprivation of the servant's accrued right to hold the post.
