Full Judgment
T. Raja, J.
1. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that having given clean chit against the charges impugned in the present Writ Petition on 27.09.2011, once again, the very same charge memo has been issued on the same set of allegation. Hence, he prayed for staying of the impugned order.
2. A reading of the proceedings dated 22.06.2016 issued by the second respondent bearing file No.47297/2010/H2 shows that the petitioner was subjected to the departmental proceedings for the same identical similar charges, in an earlier occasion also. Finally, the second respondent applying G.O.Ms.No.155 dated 16.07.1993 has dismissed all the charges levelled against the petitioner 'as not proved'.
3. prima facie, it appears that the petitioner has been again issued with the very same charge memo, to which, already clean chit has been given by the respondents.
4. In view of the above, notice through Court as well privately returnable by 22.08.2016. In the meanwhile, there shall be an order of interim stay. The respondents are directed to file counter by 22.08.2016.
