Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-11-2003

Reported in: 2003(3)AWC1880

ORDERM. Katju and Prakash Krishna, JJ.1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. Sri Prem Chand has appeared for the respondent.2. Admittedly, the petitioner had been granted a contract for five years from 12.2.1998 to 11.2.2003. This five years period has admittedly expired.3. Learned counsel for the petitioner has invited our attention to Clause 4 of the agreement dated 12.2.1998 which states as follows :'That this contract shall be valid for five years period. But it shall further be renewed, at the option of both the parties on the prevailing advertisement tax rates.'4. In our opinion, this clause only applies where both the parties are agreeable that the contract should be renewed. In the present case, the respondents were not agreeable to renew the contract. Moreover, in our opinion, this clause for renewal of the contract is violative of Articles 14 and 19(1)(g) of the Constitution. In a case where the contract was granted for a fixed period, then it is known to the parties th...

Sudhir Kumar Singh Vs. State of U.P. and ors.

Court: Allahabad

Decided on: Mar-11-2003

Reported in: 2003(3)AWC1892

ORDERAnjani Kumar, J.1. The petitioner, by means of this writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, has challenged the order dated 30th January, 2003 (Annexure-1 to the writ petition) passed by the Superintendent of Police (Railway), Agra, whereby the petitioner has been suspended pending enquiry.2. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the suspension order refers to Rule 17(1) (b) of the U. P. Police Officers of Subordinate Ranks (Punishment and Appeal) Rules, 1991, which cannot be attracted in the facts and circumstances of the present case. Rule 17 (1) (a) of the Rules confers power of suspension as in contemplation/pendency of enquiry against a subordinate police officer. This has not been disputed by the learned counsel for the petitioner. It is settled that mere wrong mention of the provisions of law will not vitiate the order passed by the authority, if the authority has power to pass the order. In this view of the matter, this argument of the lea...

Chief Medical Officer and Ors., 2001 (2) AWC 1506 : (2001) 3 UPLBEC 2057, has argued that in the impugned order of suspension, there is no recital that any enquiry is in contemplation or pending.
