The Division Bench rejected the reasoning of the Labour Court after relying upon Rattan Singh. It was also held that apart from the statement of the passengers, there was other material such as unpunched tickets, offence memo checking report etc.

38. The view of the Gujarat High Court is to be found in Gujarat State Road Transport Corporation vs. M.S. Patel, 1998 II CLR 473. In that case, the conductor of a bus did not issue tickets to two groups of passengers. The checking staff made a report after taking the statements of the passengers. In a departmental enquiry, the conductor was held guilty of misconduct and dismissed from service. The Labour Court, however, upset the finding of the disciplinary authority and reinstated the workman. The Gujarat High Court held that it was not a criminal prosecution where the allegations have to be proved against the conductor beyond doubt. The checking staff had produced the statements of the passengers and had withstood cross-examination. Relying upon the judgment of the Supreme Court in Rattan Singh, it was held that the finding of guilt against the conductor was not unjustified.
