As required by Regulation 19 of the 1976 Regulations, disciplinary procedures that were commenced without prior consultation with the Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) were thrown out by a bench of the Supreme Court of India led by Justice Abhay S. Oka. This decision is considered to be a landmark in the case of A.M. Kulshrestha v. Union Bank of India. The appellant, a senior bank executive with a spotless record spanning 34 years, was suspended several months prior to retirement and served with a charge sheet without waiting for obligatory CVC counsel. A decision of this nature was deemed arbitrary and procedurally faulty by the court. When it comes to disciplinary proceedings that involve vigilance perspectives in public sector employment, this ruling emphasizes the significance of due process, procedural fairness, and institutional accountability.
