Fraud in Medical Disclosure Vitiates Public Appointment Even After Reinstatement | Service Dues with 6% Interest Mandated : Supreme Court
The Supreme Court has ruled that concealing medical unfitness during reinstatement invalidates a public appointment, regardless of administrative oversight failures. The termination is upheld, but the employee is entitled to full service dues for actual tenure rendered, with 6% interest from the date of reinstatement - reinforcing that fraud nullifies legitimacy, not just eligibility.
