Court: Madhya Pradesh

Decided on: Feb-08-1994

He challenges constitutional and legal validity of the said order of removal by filing this writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.2. It is not in dispute that the respondents are Government companies of the Central Government and since they are fully financed and controlled by the said Government, they fall within the definition of 'State' under Article 12 of the Constitution of India and therefore amenable to writ jurisdiction of this Court. It is also not in doubt that the officers like the petitioner are governed by Coal India Executives Conduct, Discipline and Appeal Rules, 1978.

Reported in: 1995(0)MPLJ377

P.N.S. Chouhan, J.1. Residents of village Mondwara, Police Station Jatara, District Tikamgarh were sharply divided into two camps, one led by absconding accused Ranmat Singh and the other headed by Neksai (PW 20). The bone of contention which led to these quadruple murders was rival claims for possession over the pasture land (Gochar) of the village. In the year 1984 Pattas were granted in favour of Moti, Kundan, Ranmat Singh, Ramsingh, Phulsingh, Siyaram, Kalloo Sore, Bhagwandas, Ramkali wife of Kishan etc. of appellants' camp. The other side challenged these allotments and the matter was sub judice on the date of incident. These facts are not in dispute. Members of Neksai's camp claimed that they were in actual possession of the said land notwithstanding the grant of Pattas to others and that is why they had challenged the said grants. On 25-6-1990, at day break, i.e. 6.30 a.m., appellants and four absconding accused, namely, Ranmat Singh, Motilal, Kundan Singh and Chatur Khangar wer...
