Dev Dutt vs Union Of India & Ors on 12 May, 2008
In Dev Dutt v. Union of India the Supreme Court had explained that
non-communication of not only an adverse entry but even a below
benchmark entry in the ACR to the concerned employee would be
violative of principles of natural justice. It is thereafter that the
Respondents issued a circular whereby communication of below
benchmark entries to the employees was made mandatory.
