Manager Govt. Branch Press &. Anr vs D. B. Belliawpa on 30 November, 1978

"18. In a case of this nature the appellant has not alleged malice of fact. The requirements to comply with the directions contained in the said Circular Letter dated 14- 8-1981 were necessary to be complied with in a case of this nature. Non-compliance wherewith would amount to malice in law (See Govt. Branch Press v. D.B Belliappa (1979) 1 SCC 477, S.R Venkataraman v. Union of India (1979) 2 SCC 491 and P. Mohanan Pillai v. State of Kerala (2007) 9 SCC 497). Thus, when an order suffers from malice in law, neither any averment as such is required to be made nor strict proof thereof is insisted upon. Such an order being illegal would be wholly unsustainable."

State Of Gujarat vs Umedbhai M. Patel on 27 February, 2001

24. Corruption, no doubt, is a menace, eating into the vitals of our society. An employee, who is found to have indulged in such practice, has to be dealt with iron hands. Such a public servant, if found guilty, has to be punished and shown the door but not compulsorily retired allowing him to get away with all the retiral benefits. The compulsory retirement provision has been enacted to achieve a different purpose, i.e., to weed out inefficient and corrupt public servants whose continuance in service is prejudicial to public interest. This, however, has to be adjudicated upon on the basis of the work and conduct of the employee during his whole service career though attaching more importance to his work and conduct during last some years preceding his compulsory retirement. This power based on the pleasure doctrine of the sovereign should not be used for collateral purpose. The Supreme Court as well as different High Courts of the country including this Court have laid down broad principles from time to time which were summarized by the Supreme Court in the case of Umedbhai M. Patel's case (supra)."
