GAJENDRA KUMAR PATEL Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) It is indeed unfortunate that the enquiry initiated against the petitioners in pursuance of directions of this court itself has been successfully stalled by the petitioner in the present set of writ petitions.

(2.) 23 petitioners came to this Court by way of batch of writ petitions led by Smt. Ramila Roat V/s State of Rajasthan and ors. - SBCWP No.475/2012 and batch of 23 writ petitions came to be decided by the coordinate bench of this court on 1.5.2012, a copy of which order has been placed on record as Annex.5.

(3.) The controversy which led to filing of these writ petitions arose because the petitioners' services who were appointed as teachers in the respondent Education Department of the State Government were sought to be terminated on 3.1.2012 purportedly on the ground that the documents furnished by them at the time of their appointment in the year 1999 were wrong and some interpolations were made in the marks-sheets for which an FIR was filed and the marks were wrongly added for preparing the merit on the basis of which they were offered such appointment and there were mistakes committed in the computation of marks and merit list. The termination orders were challenged by the petitioners in the aforesaid writ petitions which came to be disposed of by a coordinate bench of this Court on 1.5.2012. The relevant part of the order is quoted below for ready reference:
