(1.) LEARNED counsel for the petitioner submitted that petitioner was appointed somewhere in the year, 1987 as Godown Chowkidar with the respondent authorities by following the due procedure of law as Clause -IV. He was also paid salary by the respondents. No grievance has ever been ventilated by the respondent authorities against the working of the present petitioner and suddenly in the year, 2002 vide order dated 16th September, 2002 at Annexure 12 as well as vide order dated 4th October, 2002 at Annexure 13, the services of the present petitioner has been brought to an end by the respondent authorities without issuing any notice and without giving any opportunity of being heard to the petitioner. Several times thereafter, representations have been preferred orally as well as in writing by the present petitioner, but, the respondents have turned deaf ear to the such representations and, therefore, this writ petition has been preferred by the petitioner.
(2.) I have heard learned counsel for the respondents, who has submitted that the petitioner was never appointed in accordance with law and, therefore, his services has been brought to an end. Detailed speaking orders have been passed on 16th September, 2002 at Annexure 12 and, thereafter, on 4th October, 2002 at Annexure 13 to the memo of the present petition, and, therefore, there is no substance in the present petition and the same deserves to be dismissed.
(3.) THE petition is hereby allowed to the aforesaid extent.
