Smt. Sunita Gopal Rajwani vs R.H. Mendonca, Commissioner Of Police ... on 28 June, 1996
A bald statement, without any details thereof, that there was urgent Government work with important and urgent matters, cannot be accepted as a proper explanation in view of the decision of the Supreme Court in Kundanbhai Dulabhai Shaikh's case (supra). We may have adopted a different approach where the explanation gives the details of the alleged tours, as also the details of the busy schedule. No such details have been furnished to us though we had repeatedly enquired as to whether this was possible. We must bear in mind the consistent approach of the Supreme Court in such matters where the Court had insisted on the date-wise details of the action taken or the reasons for the inaction.
