Karnataka High Court in P V Rudrappa vs. The State of Karnataka W.P No. 9642/2020, while quashing an order of dismissal of an employee charged with an act of bribery observed that, the material lapse on the part of any enquiry officer may result in masking of the truth to the prejudice of the employee. The Court further stated that in cases coming before the court, more often than not, departmental enquiries are conducted by untrained enquiry officers who do not even have minimum expertise in the matters which puts the stakeholders at risk and a crash course of training in matters like this would be of great advantage to all the stakeholders.
