 "summary": "The Patna High Court dismissed a writ petition filed by dismissed constable, upholding the order of dismissal passed by the Superintendent of Police, Saharsa with effect from November 1, 1987. A departmental inquiry established that on the night of July 31, 1986, the petitioner brought alcohol into Jadia Police Station, drank there, assaulted civilian a Jadia man inside the station, and hurled abusive language at the Inspector and Sub-Inspector when restrained. Holding that the inquiry was conducted properly with full opportunity given to the delinquent officer and that severe indiscipline in a uniformed police force cannot be tolerated, the Court found the dismissal penalty fully commensurate with the misconduct. Matters not addressed in the cited judgment text are not recorded here.",

 "court_quote": "The charges levelled against the petitioner and the materials on record, which were fully discussed in the impugned orders, clearly show that the petitioner had committed acts of gross misconduct, negligence and indiscipline not befitting a Police personnel and hence the punishment given to him was quite commensurate with the acts committed by the petitioner. For the reason aforementioned, I do not see any illegality or irregularity in the impugned orders of the authorities concerned and, accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed.",
