Six witnesses ie Ms. Aakriti, Ms. Jayashree, Ms. Devyani, Mr Surinder Kataria, Mr. Lokesh Pandey and Ms. Manjaree Chaudhary denied that the Complainant had told them anything. The other witnesses were not aware of any issue and could not corroborate her statement. Hence IC could not establish any instance of physical touching or advances. However, the IC believes that there were two very clearly demarcated groups in the Legal-2 team and atmosphere was not cordial and decorum was not maintained. IC also felt that many witnesses and Respondents were aggressive with even the IC. However, with respect to the conspiracy as alleged by Respondents and few witnesses by the ex-employees i.e Mr. Surinder Kataria and Mr. Brijesh Choudhary along with Mr. R.K. Shanna, Gaurav Kaushik and the Complainant herself, IC was provided with no evidence to prove the same. There seems to be a high probability that the Complainant felt pressurized and constrained as there was caucus and lack of team work, trust, and cordial relations in the Division. All Legal Department witnesses stated that there is only professional interaction and there is no personal interaction, which seems strange in such a compact group. All witnesses also stated that none of them discussed the case with each other, even though there was no advisory given to them by the IC till then. That seems to be improbable lie and implies an atmosphere of constraint.
