CAT asks Delhi Police to inquire afresh charge against constable

New Delhi, Feb 26 (PTI) The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) has asked the Delhi Police to conduct a fresh inquiry against a constable who was allegedly found sleeping during duty hours and whose service tenure was cut by three years as punishment. Quashing the order of the appellate authority, the CAT directed the Delhi Police to rehear his appeal by a Joint Commissioner rank official.
Ghaziabad-resident Manbir Singh, a constable with the Delhi Police, was found guilty of sleeping during duty hours by the appellate authority.

The appellate authority, while holding a departmental inquiry against an employee, should go into the allegations independently rather than basing its decisions on on extraneous material, the CAT, comprising Vice Chairman M Ramachandran and Member N D Dayal, said. "The appellate authority has rested its decision on extraneous material and not on the evidence that has forth come in the inquiry.
