The Madhya Pradesh High Court recommended a disciplinary enquiry against a trial court judge for failing to properly follow its order to conduct an enquiry in a property dispute case. The Court found the judge’s explanation unsatisfactory and directed the matter to be placed before the Chief Justice for possible action.
The Madhya Pradesh High Court upheld the compulsory retirement of a guard caught sleeping on duty with a detectable alcohol smell. The court ruled this a serious misconduct, emphasizing the guard’s responsibility to remain vigilant. The judge stated the punishment was appropriate, given the circumstances and duty involved.
