Dev Dutt vs Union Of India & Ors on 12 May, 2008
The School has not only erred in being unreasonable and dictatorial in its
approach but the School management is also guilty of acting in contravention
of dictum of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, as held in the case of Dev
Dutt vs. Union of India, (2008) 8 SCC 725 decided on 12.05.2008 whereby
upholding the principles of natural justice the Apex Court had held as follows:
Section 8 in The Right to Information Act, 2005 [Entire Act]
Section 20 in The Right to Information Act, 2005 [Entire Act]
Maneka Gandhi vs Union Of India on 25 January, 1978
".....19. In our opinion, every entry in the A.C.R. of a public servant
must be communicated to him within a reasonable period, whether it is
a poor, fair, average, good or very good entry. This is because non-
communication of such an entry may adversely affect the employee in
two ways: (1) Had the entry been communicated to him he would know
about the assessment of his work and conduct by his superiors, which
would enable him to improve his work in future (2) He would have an
opportunity of making a representation against the entry if he feels it is
unjustified, and pray for its upgradation. Hence non-communication of
an entry is arbitrary, and it has been held by the Constitution Bench
decision of this Court in Maneka Gandhi vs. Union of India (supra) that
arbitrariness violates Article 14 of the Constitution.
