Leave
Leave, having regard to the language of Rule 123 doubtless the word 'leave' has been used as a verb and not as a noun. Taking the word in its ordinary parlance if used as a verb it clearly connotes that the candidate should have given up the job or quitted the service or severed all connections with the post that he was holding. If the word 'leave' would have been used as a noun in the sense of obtaining leave or furlough then the concept of permission would undoubtedly have to be considered. In Black's Law Dictionary, Revised Fourth Edition at p. 1036 the author referring the case of Landreth v. Casey, 340 III 519; 173 NE 84 (85) observes as follows: 'Wilful departure with intent to remain away, and not temporary absence with intention of returning.' To the same effect is the definition of the word 'leave' when used as a verb in Webster's New International Dictionary at p. 1287 where it has been defined as meaning 'desert, abandon, forsake, to give up the practice, to quit service and...

Migrated
Migrated, The word 'migrated' is capable both of a narrower meaning as well as of a wider meaning. In its narrower connotation it means going from one place to another with the intention of residing permanently in the latter place; in its wider connotation it simply means going from one place to another whether or not with any intention of permanent residence in the latter place. In Webster's dictionary (Second Edition, 1937), the word 'migrate' means 'to go from one place to another; especially to move from one country, region or place of abode or sojourn to another, with a view to residence; to move.' Corpus Juris Secundum published in 1948 gives the same meaning except that it adds one more meaning namely, 'to change one's place of residence', Kulathil Mammu v. State of Kerala, AIR 1966 SC 1614 (1616): (1966) 3 SCR 706. [Constitution of India, Art. 7]The word 'migrated' was capable of two meanings.
