Police constable reinstated after 27-year legal battle, returns to force

A former police constable, who lost his job years ago and later became known as a seer, has been reinstated following a 27-year legal battle. The court's verdict mandates his return to the force, ending one of the longest employment disputes in the country. The constable had challenged his dismissal on procedural grounds, arguing that the termination was unlawful. Over nearly three decades, successive appeals were filed, culminating in the recent judgment that upheld his claim. He is expected to report for duty next week, marking a rare instance of a police officer resuming service after such an extended legal struggle.
