JAGANNATH BAGDI Vs. STATE OF WEST BENGAL

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THE petitioner in this WPST under art.226 of the Constitution of India dated January 4, 2013 is questioning an order of the West Bengal Administrative Tribunal dated April 17, 2012 disposing of his OA No.1132 of 2011. The order of the Tribunal is quoted below:-

(2.) A copy of the OA has been produced with the WPST. In para.3 of the OA the petitioner gave the particulars of the order questioning which he filed the OA. Relevant part of para.3 of the OA is quoted below:-

(3.) WE are unable to appreciate the manner in which the Tribunal disposed of the OA. The Tribunal should not pass such mechanical order as the impugned one directing consideration and disposal of representation; for mechanical orders are bound to generate unnecessary future litigations. It should not direct anyone to treat an OA as a representation as well; for it amounts to unauthorised delegation of its powers, because only it is empowered to decide an OA.
