Court: Allahabad

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-21-1999

Reported in: 1999(3)AWC2230

Yatindra Singh, J. 1. Is there vacancy if the sub-tenant leaves the premises? Who is entitled to have his release application considered first : the landlord owner or the Chief tenant? These are the questions involved in these two writ petitions. This is how they arise.FACTS 2. There is big house situate at 38, Lytton Road, Dehradun. Sri H.S. Bhatnagar is the owner of the same (the landlord owner for short). A part of this is occupied by him and a part by Dr. Diwan Singh as his tenant (the Chief tenant for short). Dr. Diwan Singh let out a part of the portion in his tenancy to one Sri B.M. Puri (the sub-tenant for short). The landlord-owner says this was some time in 1968 without obtaining any permission from the landlord or the District Magistrate. The chief tenant does not agree. He says it was some time in the year 1960 after taking permission from one Data Ram, brother of the mortgagee of the property at that time. The Chief-tenant further says that subsequentlythe land lord-owner ...

Manzoor Ali Vs. Deputy Secretary, U.P.S.E.B. and Others

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-21-1999

Reported in: 1999(3)AWC2470

D.K. Seth, J.1. Mr. H. C. Singh.learned counsel for the petitioner has challenged the order of suspension dated 16th September, 1998 contained in Annexure-4 to the writ petition on various grounds. He has also prayed that he should be paid 2/3rd subsistence allowance.2. After hearing Mr. Singh and Mr. S. P. Mehrotra, counsel for therespondents, I do not see any reason to interfere with the order of suspension. Inasmuch as the order of suspension itself indicates that by vigilance department, charge-sheet has been already filed in some offences under the Code of Criminal Procedure. Therefore, it might be a case of suspension pending criminal investigation. Whatever might be the situation, I am not inclined to enter into the merits of the case at this stage. It appears that there are sufficient reasons to suspend the petitioner for the time being. It is always in the discretion of the respondents to continue or not to continue the same. This Court can only interfere unless it is shown th...

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-21-1999

Reported in: 1999(3)AWC2443; (1999)2UPLBEC1404

M. Katju, J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned standing counsel.2. The petitioner is a widow with four small children. The petitioner's husband died in harness on 4.5.1998 and she has claimed appointment under Dying-in-Harness Rules.3. Learned standing counsel has submitted that no appointment under Dying-in-Harness Rules can be given to the petitioner in view of the decision of the Supreme Court in State of Haryana v. Rani Devi, JT 1996 (6) SC 646. He has invited our attention to paragraph 8 of the said judgment in which it has been held that the casual or ad hoc appointee cannot be given benefit of the G.O. dated 31.10.1985. I have carefully perused the aforesaid decision and, in my opinion, it is distinguishable. The petitioner's husband was not a purely casual or ad hoc employee. He was a temporary appointee who had worked against a substantive vacancy from 18.4.1987 and had worked for more than 11 years. The decision of the Supreme Court applied to a case of ...

Reported in: 1999(3)AWC2620; [2000(85)FLR854]; (1999)3UPLBEC1763

D.K. Seth, J.1. Similar question was involved in the case of Civil Misc. Writ Petition No. 33231 of 1992, Mukesh Kumar Sharma v. SeniorDivisional Mortager. Life Insurance Corporation of India and another, disposed of by this Court on 5th May, 1999. In the said case, it was held that the provision for grant of appointment under the Dying-in-Harness Rules does not create a right to appointment but a right to be considered on the background of the question of destitution of the family on account of such death. The Apex Court in the case of Life Insurance Corporation of India v. Asha Ramchhandra Ambekar (Mrs.) and another. (1994) 2 SCC 718. supports the above view. In the said case, it was further held that marriage of a son does not exclude him from the membership of the family. In the present case also, the question is governed by the scheme for appointment of dependent of deceased employee on compassionate ground as contained in Chapter 2 of the Hand Book on Staff Matters Vol. II. The d...

Lajja Ram Vs. U.P. State Tribunal and Others

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-20-1999

Reported in: 1999(3)AWC2155

M. Katju, J.1. In this case on 15.4.1997, learned standing counsel was granted three week to file counter-affidavit but although morethan two years have expired, no counter-affidavit has been filed. Hence, I treat the allegations made in the petition to be correct and dispose of this petition.2. The petitioner was Constable in the U. P. Police. He has challenged the impugned orders dated 20.12.1992. 30.4.1994 and 17.2.1997, Annexures-9, 10 and 14 to the petition. By order dated 20.12.1992 the petitioner's services was dismissed on the ground that while his wife Smt. Savitri was alive, he married one Smt. Yashoda as a second wife and hence violated Rule 7 of the relevant Service Rules. Against the dismissal order, the petitioner filed appeal and revision and both have been dismissed, hence this writ petition.3. It has been held by the Supreme Court in Surjit Kaur v. Garja Singh, AIR 1994 SC 135, that for a valid marriage, the customaryceremonies have to be alleged and proved, and merely...
