V.K. Sareen S/O Late Shri D.N. Vs. Union of India (Uoi) (Through the

Court: Central Administrative Tribunal CAT Delhi

Decided on: Mar-30-2007

1. Applicant, a PAO, has assailed the memorandum dated 28.2.2003 issued under Rule 14 of the CCS (CCA) Rules, 1965, initiating disciplinary proceedings against him. Quashing of the aforesaid as well as enquiry report dated 1.7.2005 on the ground of inordinate and unexplained delay in initiating and concluding the proceedings has been sought.2.

The applicant herein had, during May, 2006 submitted this application, incorporating a prayer that Office Memorandum dated 20.6.1997 issued to him is to be quashed, including the further proceedings that might have been contemplated. Application also included a prayer that he was entitled to be extended the benefits, which normally might have come to him, and which stands denied because of the pendency of the disciplinary proceedings, evidenced by the Office Memorandum, referred to earlier (Annexure A-1).2. Interim orders have been passed on 12.7.2006, whereby the respondents had been restrained from passing final orders in the pending disciplinary proceedings. Practically, the defence of the respondents had been struck off because they failed to come up with the counter statement and the matter was heard at length. Of course, the Department had been permitted to address us citing from the files, which they were presumed to be having.3. Indeed, a dismal picture, has become evident....
