Channabasappa Basappa Happali vs State Of Mysore on 16 October, 1970

In this connection I may gainfully refer to the decision of the Apex Court as C.B. Happali v. The State of Mysore in which case also, the petitioner was a Police Officer who remained unauthorisedly absent from duty. The Apex Court brushing aside the technical pleas raised by the petitioner as in the instant case held that the factum of unauthorized absence having been admitted by the petitioner, the technical pleas towards conducting the departmental enquiry were not available to him. The Apex Court observed that the admission of fact on the part of the petitioner amounted to admission of guilt. The Apex Court in that case observed that if a police officer remained absent without leave and that position is admitted by him, the indiscipline is fully established. In the instant case also, the petitioner admitted the fact of remaining unauthorised absent from duty, although tried to explain away such absence.

13. As regards the submission of Mr. Dasgupta, that even if the charge against the petitioner is held to be established, the penalty of discharge from service is grossly disproportionate is not at all tenable, the petitioner being a member of the disciplined force. Such a plea was raised in the case of Saroj Kr. Bhattacharyya v. Union of India and Ors. as reported in 2003(2) GLT 72. In that case also the petitioner was a member of the disciplined force and remained unauthorisedly absent from duty. Pursuant to departmental proceeding he was removed from service. Learned Single Judge of this Court as well as the Division Bench of this Court rejected the claim of the petitioner that the penalty imposed was grossly disproportionate.
