Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Feb-12-1999

Reported in: 1999(2)AWC976; (1999)3UPLBEC2263

M. Katju and Kamal Kishore,JJ.1. This petition has come up before us on a reference made by the learned single Judge by his order dated 19.12.1997. The point involved is very simple, that is, whether an appointment under the Dying-in-Harness Rules is a permanent appointment or a temporary appointment. According to the learned single Judge, this Court had earlier held that an appointment under Dying-in-Harness Rules is a permanent appointment vide Budhi Sagar Dubey v. D. I. O. S., 1993 ESC 21 ; Gulab Yadau u. State of U. P. and others, 1991 (2) VPLBEC 995 and Dhirendra Pratap Singh v. D. I. O. S. and others, 1991 (1) UPLBEC 427. The learned single Judge who passed the referring order dated 19.12.1997 disagreed with the abovementioned decisions and hence has referred the matter to a larger Bench.2. In our opinion, an appointment under the Dying-in-Harness Rules has to be treated as a permanent appointment otherwise if such appointment Is treated to be a temporary appointment, then it wil...

The only contention of the petitioner's counsel before this Court is that notice issued on 1.5.1992 (Annexure-5 to the writ petition) be quashed and set aside inasmuch as under Section 11A of the Central Excise and Salt Act, 1944, no notice for refund of interest can be issued.
