R.K. Das, J. 1. Defendant 1 is the appellant against the reversing judgment of the Additional Subordinate Judge, Cuttack.

Court: Orissa

Decided on: May-06-1966

Reported in: AIR1966Ori239

G.K. Misra, J.1. The appeal is not pressed but the cross appeal has been argued at length. The facts relevant to the cross appeal are as follows :The appellant Krushna Chandra Balua is admittedly husband of Mst. Daimati Kissani, the respondent. She filed a suit for maintenance which ultimately ended in a compromise on 6-5-1960 in T. S. No. 48 of 1959 in the Court of the Munsif, Sambalpur. Under the compromise the respondent was entitled to a future maintenance of Rs. 30 p.m., Rs. 20 for herself and Rs. 10 for her minor son if and when the appellant would fail to maintain them. As the appellant failed to maintain the respondent and her minor son, she started execution of the compromise decree. The husband raised an objection under Section 47, C. P.

The petitioner is a member of the Judicial Branch of the Orissa Civil Service. The petition is directed against the Government Order issued under Notification No. 1068, dated 15 January 1963, reverting the petitioner from the post of temporary Additional District Magistrate (Judicial) to his substantive rank of Subordinate Judge.

As such it amounted to his reduction in rank as contemplated in Article 311 of the Constitution of India, Therefore, the procedure as laid down therein not having been admittedly followed and the petitioner not having been given any opportunity of showing cause against that order, it is said to be void, illegal and not binding in law.2.
