(2.) The instant writ application has been preferred by the petitioner praying therein for quashing the order of punishment as contained in Memo No. 2703 dated 20.6.2007 (annexure 4) passed by Respondent No.4 whereby three punishments were awarded to the petitioner, i.e. (i) Stoppage of two increments with cumulative effect (ii) Nothing shall be paid except subsistence allowance during the period of suspension. (iii) The petitioner was transferred from Budmu to Anchal Raniya by way of punishment.

(3.) The relevant fact necessary for disposal of the instant writ application is that the petitioner was appointed as Assistant Teacher on compassionate ground on account of death of his father on 28.03.1986. In the year 2006 the petitioner was suspended with effect from 17.5.2006. It has been alleged by the petitioner that the order of suspension was never handed over to him and he came to know about his suspension through a paper publication and thereafter he applied for the same under Right to Information Act, 2005. However, subsequently several documents were supplied to the petitioner except the suspension order as well as relieving order.
