JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) The matter despite being listed at S.No. 104 in
the cause list was taken up out of turn in view of the note
appearing in the cause list, with the consent of learned
counsel for the parties.
(2.) Heard learned counsel for the parties.
The petitioner has challenged the order of
suspension alleging inter alia that the petitioner was
working as Patwari, and while so working on a question
relating to supply of some certified copies, complaint was
made by a person in the Anti Corruption Bureau alleging
demand of illegal gratification, and thereupon the matter
was enquired by Tehsildar. However, the respondent got made
another enquiry. Then, some affidavit was said to have been
given by the complainant. Thus, the petitioner claims that
no offence was committed by him. Then, it is alleged in
para-12 that the investigation has not been completed till
the date, and the petitioner is continuing under
suspension, therefore, suspension has been challenged
contending that prima facie no offence is made out, and
investigation is not being concluded for long. Considering
the averments vide order dt. 11.11.2005, learned Addl.
Government Advocate was directed to produce the case diary,
and on 19.11.2005 it was informed that from case diary it
was found that the sanction has already been granted by the
appropriate authority for prosecution, and the charge-sheet
is likely to be filed shortly. It is today informed that
the charge-sheet has been filed. In these circumstances, I
do not stand advised to go into the question, as to whether
the offence is prima facie made out, or not, and since the
charge sheet has already been submitted, I am not inclined
to interfere with the order of suspension.
(3.) The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed
summarily. It is however directed that the learned trial
court shall complete the trial expeditiously.;
