CCA Rules Rule 10(1)(d) | Prima Facie Evidence of Gross Dereliction Requires Individualized Fault, Not Just Event Occurrence : Karnataka HC
The Karnataka High Court held that the collapse of a compound wall alone cannot trigger suspension under the CCA Rules without documented evidence linking the officer to personal negligence. This ruling reinforces that administrative discipline must be grounded in individual accountability, not structural failures, protecting public servants from automatic liability for systemic or environmental incidents.
