(2.) When the matter has come up for hearing, both the counsel agreed that the Writ Petition may be disposed of finally at the admission stage.

(3.) The learned Counsel Sri A. Satya Prasad has argued that the petitioner has been working as Paid Secretary and a surcharge order has been passed on 15-9-1988 fixing liability of Rs. 15,849.50 ps. in the proceedings issued by the fourth respondent in Rc.No.4297/87-C dated 15-9-1988.
