Petitioner has taken a specific defence that his wife was seriously ill and was under medical treatment for a long time and ultimately, she passed away. The records of the departmental enquiry also suggested that the medical papers of the wife of the petitioner were duly placed on record. The enquiry officer failed to take this account to its proper perspective.

Madras High Court said that the authorities failed to consider that there are no other criminal antecedents against the petitioner and this particular crime has nothing to do with any criminal implication, as he had only exercised his fundamental right to protest by participating in the protest organized by his fellow students and it will not have any implication as to the nature of the job for which he has applied.
