ORDERSaldanha, J.1. Heard Counsel on both sides. These three Writ Petitions raise a common point namely the issue as to whether in the case of an employee whose services with the respondent-Corporation have come to a premature end by virtue of a health or accidental disability they would be entitled to claim compassionate employment for some other eligible member of the family. The dates in question are not of much consequence but the common factor in all these three Writ Petitions is the fact that pursuant to a health situation having arisen whereby on examination, it was found that the respective petitioners were not in a position to carry out their duties with the respondent-Corporation, an order was passed voluntarily retiring them. Subsequently, applications were made on the ground that their cases were virtually on par with those where the bread winner of the family has died while in service and that therefore, one of the dependent children should be employed by the respondent-Co...

Eshwara Prasad, JI.A.I. for dispensation ordered.2. A preliminary objection as to the maintainability of the Writ Appeals is raised by Sri K.N. Subba Reddy, learned Counsel for the respondents. He contends vehemently that in view of Rule 18 of the Writ Proceedings Rules 1977, it was open to the appellants to have moved the learned Single Judge for discharging or varying the order after giving notice to the respondents and that being so, it was not open to the appellants to file the Appeals.3.

Reported in: ILR1994KAR3313; 1994(5)KarLJ49

ORDERSaldanha, J.1. The petitioner in this case is a very Senior Officer of the Armed Forces and he has through the present Petition assailed the correctness of the order passed by the Central Government under Section 19 of the Army Act on 23-4-1991 compulsorily retiring him from service. The order proceeds on the footing that the petitioner is alleged to have been guilty of certain acts which in the opinion of the Army authorities and the Central Government constituted serious misconduct which justified a direction to him to resign from service. The petitioner at that point of time had more or less agreed to this proposal but had requested that he should be permitted to resign from a slightly later date. This was unacceptable whereupon the order in question came to be passed. The petitioner has through the present Petition challenged the validity of that order principally on the ground that it was unjustified. He relies on the fact that as far as his long career as an Officer of the I...
