Natural Justice in ACR Adverse Entries | Uncommunicated Misconduct Cannot Be Added on Remand : Jharkhand HC
Jharkhand High Court rules that authorities cannot retrospectively add adverse remarks to Annual Confidential Reports (ACR) based on uncommunicated misconduct, even on remand. The judgment reinforces that service records must be expunged of such entries to uphold natural justice and Article 14, setting a precedent for fair administrative proceedings in public employment.
