KHEPU SARKAR Vs. STATE OF WEST BENGAL

Decided On May 16, 2016
Khepu Sarkar Appellant
V/S
STATE OF WEST BENGAL Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The grievance of the petitioner in this case is against the decision of the West Bengal Administrative Tribunal in O.A.1114 of 2010. By the impugned order the application filed by the petitioner before the Administrative Tribunal for quashing the order of termination dated 4th November, 2009 and for reinstatement with all consequential benefits has been dismissed.

(2.) A few facts which are relevant for the determination of the dispute in the present writ petition are as follows:

(3.) The petitioner was afforded a personal hearing by the District Magistrate, Hooghly in order to comply with the directions of the Administrative Tribunal. By an order dated 4th November, 2009 the District Magistrate cancelled the appointment of the petitioner with effect from 16th June, 2006. This was because the Finance Department had not approved of the appointment of the petitioner and two other persons who are appointed as Group D employees as the appointment was not against a sanctioned post.
