You will have to challenge the Discharge Order which was issued based on 4 Red Ink Entry. Recently the Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that Discharge be ordered in such cases only when it is absolutely necessary. It has also held that mere award of four red ink entries to an individual does not make his discharge mandatory and that four red ink entries is not some kind of laxman rekha, which if crossed would by itself render the individual concerned undesirable or unworthy of retention in the force.
