Decided on: Sep-11-2000

Reported in: (2002)ILLJ366Raj; 2000(4)WLC411; 2001(1)WLN379

B.J. Shethna, J. 1. For a petty offence of theft, one cannot be hanged, similarly for a misconduct of remaining absent for four days, one cannot be terminated from service. If there are such regulations then they are ultra vires. In fact, such regulation was struck down by this Court in S.B. Civil Writ Petition No. 4728/1999 decided on December 2, 1999. The Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Vijay Singh Charan v. Management Swetamber Nakoda Parsavnath, Mewanagar and Ors. reported in 1999(1) RLW 314 has also taken the same view.2. In view of the above, the learned single Judge allowed the writ petition filed by the respondent-workman whose services were terminated on the ground that he remained absent from duty for four days. 3. In view of above, the learned single Judge held that when standing order has already been struck down being arbitrary, then the same has to be ignored.

Court: Rajasthan

Decided on: Sep-11-2000

Reported in: 2001(1)WLC324; 2001(1)WLN145

B.J. Shethna, J.1. Having heard the learned Counsel for the parties, we are of the considered opinion that the learned Central Administrative Tribunal was wholly wrong in holding that, as a matter of fact, it was a misrepresentation on the part of the applicants on the basis of which the respondent Government committed mistake in extending them the benefit steping up of pay.'2. It is clear that the petitioners had made only representation to the Government. It was the mistake committed by the Government and not by the petitioners, for which the petitioners cannot be held responsible. The amount so over-paid to the petitioners was of hardly Rs. 200/- per month. Once it was paid to them rightly or wrongly, then in. our considered opinion, it should not have been recovered from them by the Government. Because, for the Government Rs. 200/- would hardly the matter but for the petitioners who are employee Rs. 200/- would be much.3. In view of the above discussion, we allow this writ petition...
