This Court had also directed that the petitioner should be reinstated in service, as Grade-II Police Constable, forthwith. However, it was open to the Deputy Inspector General of Police, Trichirappalli range, to proceed further against the petitioner, in accordance with law, after complying with the procedural formalities. 4.
