Natural Justice Mandate | Salary Deduction for Unauthorized Quarter Occupation Requires Due Process: CAT Allahabad

CAT Allahabad quashes Rs. 39,000/month recovery from a government employee's salary for unauthorized quarter occupation, ruling that due process and opportunity of hearing are mandatory under FR 45-A. The judgment reinforces that recovery proceedings must comply with principles of natural justice, impacting government accommodation rules and service law.
