7. I have heard the learned counsel appearing for both the parties. In the case of Pritam Singh Vs. Union of India, supra, the appellant has supplied absentee statement to one of the employee which was neither confidential document nor privilege document. The Hon'ble Supreme Court had come to the finding that no material on record was placed before the Disciplinary Authority, Appellant Authority, Revisional Authority, Tribunal and before the High Court to reasonably form an opinion that compulsory retirement was in public interest. It was also held that the case was not a case of doubtful integrity.
