Police complaint not ‘steps to prosecute’ under Paragraph 19.3 Bipartite Settlement; dismissal for misappropriation upheld | Bank disciplinary case : Delhi HC
The Delhi High Court held that a mere police complaint does not satisfy the ‘steps to prosecute’ requirement of Paragraph 19.3 of the Bipartite Settlement, so the employee’s reinstatement order was set aside and the bank’s dismissal for misappropriating funds was affirmed, shaping future disciplinary actions in industrial disputes.
