The Allahabad High Court ordered the Uttar Pradesh government to pay Rs 5 lakh compensation to a man allegedly kept in illegal detention despite a court stay on his arrest, while directing disciplinary proceedings against the concerned SHO for dereliction of official duty.
The Telangana High Court dismissed the State government’s appeal against quashing the dismissal of a Jawahar Bal Bhavan employee accused of using a fake degree. The Court held that enhancing punishment after acquittal and earlier penalty was unjustified, allowing reinstatement as junior stenographer with back wages.
