Ramesh Chandra Verma vs R.D. Verma And Ors. on 29 October, 1957
In R. C. Verma's case, AIR 1958 All 532 Mehrotra J. of the Allahabad High Court observed that in a given case refusal to afford a reasonable opportunity to take legal advice when viewed in the light of the other circumstances may legitimately lead to the inference that the civil servant involved was not given a reasonable opportunity to defend himself.
