As per case facts, the Petitioner, a student, participated in a peaceful protest regarding food quality, leading to a disciplinary inquiry and subsequent expulsion for two semesters and permanent removal ... from the hostel by the Registrar. The Petitioner's appeal was rejected by the Pro-Vice Chancellor without an oral hearing. The Petitioner argues a denial of natural justice, claiming he was not provided with the inquiry report, evidence, or an opportunity to defend himself, and that the punishment was disproportionate. The question arose whether the university's disciplinary actions, lacking transparency and due process, were legally sound and compliant with principles of natural justice. Finally, the Supreme Court allowed the Writ Petition, setting aside the expulsion and appeal orders. The Supreme Court found the orders unsustainable due to clear violations of natural justice, including failure to provide the inquiry report, evidence, and an oral hearing. The orders were noted as cryptic and lacking independent reasoning, but the university was allowed to proceed legally following due procedure.
