Patna High Court rules that 15 years of unblemished service and prior document verification negate dishonest intent in forgery allegations, mandating bail under Article 21. The judgment reinforces that prolonged incarceration without trial progress violates constitutional rights, even in serious IPC offences.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court at Gwalior directed authorities to consider a contractual teacher's claim for regular appointment or Adhyapak Samvarg benefits under the 2008 Rules, without requiring a fresh eligibility test, relying on binding precedents. The ruling mandates consequential benefits within 90 days, reinforcing parity for similarly situated contractual employees under service law.
