 "summary": "The judgment of the Patna High Court records the following account. [name withheld] [name withheld], a CRPF constable of 133 Battalion at Dhurwa, Ranchi, challenged his May 2010 dismissal for overstaying leave sanctioned from January to February 2009. The court found he had remained absent for hundreds of days without justifiable reason, rejecting his medical and bias pleas. The court held that overstay by members of a disciplined force is indiscipline to be dealt with sternly and that the punishment suffered no infirmity on merits or quantum. The writ petition was dismissed, and the dismissal, already affirmed in appeal and revision, stands.",
