ON the next date of hearing , demand in writing to provide copy of charge sheet along with document and show your inability to represent to your defense effectively in the absence of it. Still not provided, clear violation of fair trail and principal of audi alteram partem.

1.  IF allegations are put to an accused, THEN the accused is legally entitled to all the documents relating to the accusations for is defense.  This is called "Natural Justice", without which the inquiry proceedings would be defective and won't stand legal scrutiny, in a court of law.

2.  File written application to provide you with all the relevant documents relating to the inquiry and few weeks to prepare your defense.

3. You would be entitled to defend the accusations thru a lawyer expert in the matter.

You need to make an application to DGM to ask for copy of documents and cases under which the inquiry is pending for preparation of your defence accordingly.

They will not provide you the list of witnesses to keep them safe and prevent them from turning hostile.

In the departmental enquiry, if you have received show cause notice then it becomes your duty to give a reply denying the charges agaisnt you as found in the notice and then participate in the enquiry proceedings.

You will be furnished with the documentary evidences they may rely upon for this inquiry or you can record your objections in writing stating that your were not given the copies of the documents hence the inquiry session is totally biased and malafide hence you will not get justice if the inquiry is proceeding in the same manner.

After that you can file a writ of certiorari mandamus before high court seeking dismiss the inquiry on the same grounds as the inquiry is not conducted in a fair and justified manner.

You can consult an advocate in the local and proceed.

You first of ll attend the inquiry and ask for the copies of all the documents that are relied upon by bank in prosecuting the case against you.

They have to furnish all the relevant document or else the inquiry is not fair and proper.

Yes, you are well within your rights to call for copies of all the relevant documents from your employer, so as to prepare your defence. Writ jurisdiction will not apply at this stage.
