Removal from service

Removal from service, the word 'removed', which appears in Article 311(2) does not find mention in s. 240(3) of the Government of India Act, 1935. But this does not mean that s. 240(3) did not cover a case of 'removal'. It is by now well settled that from the constitutional stand point 'removal' and 'dismissal' stand on the same footing except as to future employment, Uttar Pradesh Government v. Sabir Hussain, AIR 1975 SC 2045: (1975) 4 SCC 703: (1975) Supp SCR 354....


Cessation of service

Cessation of service, the 'cessation' of service pursuant to Rule 18 of the Fundamental Rules would, in substance and effect, stand on the same footing as 'his removal' from service within the contemplation of Article 311(2) of the Constitution, particularly when it is against the will of the employee who is willing to serve, or who had never lost the animus to rejoin duty on the expiry of his leave. Another reason for equating 'cessation' of service under this rule with 'removal' within the meaning of Article 311(2), is that it proceeds on a ground personal to the employee involving an imputation which may conceivably be explained by him in the circumstances of a particular case, State of Assam v. Akshaya Kumar Deb, (1975) 4 SCC 339: AIR 1976 SC 37 (39)....


Dismissal or removal or reduction in rank

Dismissal or removal or reduction in rank, Any and every termination of service is not a dismissal, removal or reduction in rank. A termination of service brought about by the exercise of a contractual right is not per se dismissal or removal. If the termination of service is founded on the right flowing from contract or the service rules then, prima facie, the termination is not a punishment and carries with it no evil consequences and so Art. 311 is not attracted. A reduction in rank likewise may be by way of punishment or it may be an innocuous thing, Parshotam lal Dhingra v. Union of India, AIR 1958 SC 36: (1958) SCR 828...
