    B. Patna HighCourt

    C. TribhuwamKumarYadav VsUOI & Ors

    D. 14.05.2012

    The Honble Court dismissed the writ and held that-

    It is not in dispute, that so far the petitioner is concerned hisdate of birth is 03.04.1993 and when application dated12.4.2002 was filed on his behalf he was only about 9 years ofage and he was not fit for appointment on compassionateground and much thereafter he has attended majority in the year2011. Hence after so much delay there is no occasion forconsidering the claim of the petitioner for compassionateappointment. Such appointment is meant for the immediaterelief to the family which has lost its bread earner. So far themother of petitioner is concerned her clam had been finallyrejected by the authority concerned vide order dt. 24.01.11 and01.10.11 but the said lady has not approached this Court and inthe aforesaid facts and circumstances the petitioner cannot belegally deemed to be entitled to raise any objection on her behalfwhen she is alive. If she does not want to challenge the saidorder of the authority the petitioner cannot be allowed to raisesuch objection on her behalf.In the aforesaid facts and circumstances, this writ petition hasnot merit and it is accordingly dismissed.

  • 4SN.-4 Absconding from duties.A. Case No.B. CourtC. PartiesD.Dt. of J.O.

    B. Ranchi HighCourt

    C. Ex-SI/ExeCyril ToppoVs UOI &ors

    D. 24.09.2012

    The petitioner was dealt U/R-36 for AWL for 60 days.

    He was awarded the penalty of Removal from Service.

    The Honble Court dismissed the writ and held that-

    It is absolutely improbable that the petitioner could not find anytime to inform the authorities for extension/grant of leave eitherby Post or by Telegram. Not only this, the impugned ordersuggests that the petitioner was declared absconder from dutiesand the police personnels were sent to his residence to find outand to produce him before the superior officer (s). However, onvisiting the residence, the petitioner was found missing from hisresidence as well. If the petitioner's mother was ill, as suggestedby learned counsel for the petitioner, in normal course, he wouldhave remained present in his residence, but he was foundmissing when the police personnel went to his residence forproducing him before the superior officer. Therefore, in hisdefence/ story set up by petitioner, on the face of it, seems to bean after-thought.However, the facts of the present case are totally different. Noneshould be permitted to remain absent from the dutiesunauthorisedly for a long time in a disciplined Force, that too,without valid and justified reasons.For the reasons discussed hereinabove, petitioner was guilty toremain absent for no valid or reasonable reason. This actionamounts to gross indiscipline, therefore, I do not find that thepunishment awarded to the petitioner is on the higher side in adisciplined Force. I do not find any justification to interfere withthe removal order passed by the disciplinary authorities.Consequently, the writ petition fails and is hereby dismissed.

  • 5SN.-5 Misconduct, disobedience and dereliction of duty.A. Case No.B. CourtC. PartiesD.Dt. of J.O.

    D. 26.07.2012

    The Petitioner was awarded the penalty of Removal from service onthe ground that during his duty hrs at Shop and CPL CISF Unit HECRanch some miscreants try to steal three gunny bags of brass chipsapproximate cost of Rs.19,88due to his carelessness and he has notappeared in orderly room when asked to do so.

    The Honble Court dismissed the writ and held that-

    I am fully satisfied that not only the petitioner was negligent buthis action amounts to gross indiscipline. A constable ofdisciplined Force like CISF should not dare to say that I will notreport to the superior officer of the Force on time since I amfeeling sleepy. If such type of plea is accepted, then there willbe no discipline in the disciplined Force. In view of the grossindiscipline on the part of the petitioner, I am satisfied that hisremoval from service is justified. Therefore, no interference iscalled for.

    Against the above order petitioner filed Special Appeal before theDivision Bench of Gauhati High Court.

    The Honble Gauahati High Court held that-

    The penalty imposed on the petitioner cannot be said to bedisproportionate to the gravity of the charge attributed to thepetitioner, more particularly when the petitioner during his servicecareer of 10 years was imposed with as many 7 penalties indicated inthe Article of Charge.IV.

The Honble Delhi High Court dismissed the writ but withoutthere being any order as to costs with the following remarks: To seek sex at a work place is a fairly serious offence and for whichthe penalty of dismissal from service does not shock our judicialconscience. We may highlight that unsolicited sex by Force personneland that too from helpless poor ladies has turned out to be resultingin explosive situations, going out of control on numerous occasions.

    The petitioner while posted at CISF Unit CIAL Cochin was awardedwith the penalty of Dismissal from Service for two counts. Firstcharge was commission of adultery with a labourer and another chargewas assaulting and manhandling with labourer and her husband.

    The WP was dismissed by the Learned Single Judge.

    The Petitioner filed WP before Division Bench of Kerala High Court.The Honble Kerla High Court dismiss the writ stating that thepetitioner is guilty of moral turpitude as such dismissal from service isappropriate.

    The Honble Court held that

    the admission of the appellant during the preliminary enquiry wasenough to establish his conduct being a CISF Constable. Theappellant being a CISF Constable, a member of para military force,ought to have behaved in a disciplined manner and the misconductfrom his part would reflect his moral turpitude. In that view of thematter, the question of any leniency to him would not arise. Theproved charges deserve noting less than dismissal from service. Wedo not find any good ground to interfere with the opinion of thelearned single judge and accordingly the appeal is dismissed.

  • 9SN.09 The Possession of excess money than the prescribed during duty hours treated violation of the instructions amounted to misconduct.

    D. 07.08.2012

    As per Office order dated 5.3.2002, the men on duty should carry onlyRs.10./- whereas the petitioner Assistant Sub-Inspector in CISF hadviolated the said order and was found possessing Rs.20/- while on dutywhen a team led by the Inspector carried out the check.

    After conducting due enquiry he was awarded the penalty of Reduction tothe lower rank of Head Constable until he is found to be fit after threeyears from the date of the order.

    On appeal the penalty was modified to that of reduction in the pay to theminimum stage in the rank of A.S.I. for the period of two years. It was alsodirected that during the period of reduction the petitioner would not earnthe increments of pay and on expiry of the said period the reduction wouldhave the effect of postponing his future increments of pay.

    In WP filed in A.P. High Court the learned Single Judge observed that therewas no direct complaint against the petitioner regarding acceptance ofillegal gratification, the appellate authority failed to reach the logicalconclusion and that the observation made by the appellate authority itselfevidenced that the petitioner had not committed any misconduct. TheHonble learned Single Judge allowed the writ and quashed to orders of theDisciplinary, appellate and reviewing authorities vide order dated19.09.2011 in WP NO. 12022 of 2005.

    Against the above order a Writ appeal was filed before the Honble DivisionBench of A.P. High Court. The Honble A.P.High Court allowed the writappeal and dismiss the WP. The Honble A.P. High Court highlighted that-

    The concurrent finding recorded by the disciplinary as well as the appellateauthority that the petitioner had acted contrary to the office order and thushe was guilty of misconduct cannot be held to be a finding which wasvitiated by perversity or for want of evidence. Even assuming that the OfficeOrder, dated 5.3.2002 has no statutory force, since all the members of theForce are bound to comply with the same, the violation, in our consideredopinion, undoubtedly amounts to misconduct.

    The petitioner was working as immigration clearing Officer at the IGIAirport, New Delhi. During duty at IGI Airport, New Delhi he keptone pax Shri Sukhdev standing for about 12 minutes and cleared in thelast for want of old passport without any valid reason in violation ofFRRO Circular dated 22.12.1993 wherein it has been clearly laiddown that-

    No Clearing Officer in future will ask for the expired passport/traveldocuments from a pax in order to confirm his departure/arrival at thetime of embarking/disembarking unless and until he has a reasonableand strong suspicion of forgery of the passport/travel documentsproduced before him by the pax for getting an immigration clearance.

    The Petitioner was awarded the penalty of reduction of pay by onestage for a period of one year. Against the above penalty the petitionerfiled Special Civil Application before the High Court of Gujrat atAhmedabad.

    The Court find the conclusion reached by the Enquiry Officer is justand proper and dismiss the petition with an opinion that the respondentauthority has taken lenient view by imposing penalty of reduction ofone increment without future effect. Therefore, no interference iscalled for.

    The Court made it clear that-

    Normally the High Court and the Apex Court would notinterfere with the findings of fact recorded at the domesticenquiry but if the finding of guilt is based on no evidence,it would be a perverse finding and would be amenable tojudicial scrutiny. Therefore, it is very clear that scope ofArticle 226 of the Constitution of India is very limited.

    the WP is clearly not entertainable. The petitioner has clubbed theproceedings in connection of various charges against him ondifferent occasions and for difference acts committed by him,. Allthese matters plainly cannot be clubbed together and challenged inthe WP. The WP suffers from misjoinder of cause of action. There isno cogent explanation for his inordinate delay except that thepetitioner has mentioned the mental condition and his inability tounderstand the orders passed by the appropriate authority. This ishardly any explanation, which justifies such belated approach tocourt.

The petitionerhad filed the said original application accompanied by the applicationfor condonation of delay. The condonation of delay application has notbeen accepted and as a result the original application filed by thepetitioner has been dismissed by the Tribunal on the ground oflimitation.The Honble Delhi High Court dismiss the writ and clarified that It is absolutely clear that going by the provisions of Section 21 of theAdministrative Tribunals Act, 1985, the original application filed bythe petitioner in October, 2005 was clearly beyond time. In fact, thepetitioner ought to have approached the Court within a year of thepassing of order dated 11.12.1996 by the appellate authority.However, the petitioner chose to file a representation before the Lt.Governor which also came to be rejected on 18.10.2001. As pointedout above, even if we take the date of 01.08.2003 as the date on whichthe petitioner was supplied a copy of the order dated 18.10.2001, thereis no tangible reason as to why the petitioner could not have filed theoriginal application within a period of one year from that date.Consequently, the finding of the Tribunal that the original applicationwas barred by limitation cannot be interfered with. The writpetition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs.
