DINESH KUMAR YADAV Vs. UNION OF INDIA

Decided On March 28, 2007
DINESH KUMAR YADAV Appellant
V/S
UNION OF INDIA Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD Shri B. N. Singh, learned Counsel for the appellant and Shri A. K. Nigam, Additional Solicitor General of India assisted by Shri S. A. M. Firdausi, Additional Standing Counsel for the Central Government.

(2.) THE appellant seeks to challenge the order passed by the learned Single Judge on 15-2-2007 whereby he has dismissed the petition filed by him.

(3.) MR. Singh learned Counsel for the appellant drew our attention to the judgment of the Apex Court in State of Punjab v. Amar Singh, AIR 1966 SC 1313. In the aforesaid case the Apex Court held that an order of dismissal which is kept on the file without communicating does not take effect from the date on which the order is actually written down by the authority concerned. There cannot be any two views on that. In this case, we are concerned with the territorial jurisdiction and in our view the learned Single Judge was right.
