Departmental Enquiry | Visual Comparison of Photos Without Expert Evidence Invalidates Selection Cancellation : Bombay HC
The Bombay High Court has ruled that cancelling a Talathi selection based solely on visual comparison of photographs and signatures-without expert analysis or corroborative testimony-violates natural justice and is legally unsustainable. This sets a critical precedent for all public recruitment processes, requiring substantive evidence over subjective assessment in disciplinary and selection disputes.
