C T KASIRAJAN Vs. JOINT DIRECTOR KALLAR RECLAMATION

Decided On February 02, 2017
C T Kasirajan Appellant
V/S
Joint Director Kallar Reclamation Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The petitioner has filed this writ petition, seeking to quash the impugned order passed by the respondent dated 25.1.2017 in OCNOH10/55443/2016, rejecting the request of the petitioner to revoke the suspension, in the light of the judgment of the Apex Court in Ajay Kumar Choudhary vs. Union of India.

(2.) The case of the petitioner is that while he was serving as B.T.Assistant cum Hostel Warden in Kallar Reclamation Hostel situated at Dindigul, the petitioner was suspended from service on 25.1.2017 for misappropriation of Government money by making forgery attendance.

(3.) It is the contention of the petitioner that he has been suspended falsely and the charge of misappropriation of Government money by making forgery attendance in the hostel is mere lie and is nothing but a colourable exercise of power. However, he has been falsely implicated in the departmental proceedings also, but however, he has been kept under prolonged suspension without being revoked. Hence, this writ petition.
