2013 (9) TMI 847 - PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURTViolation of standing order - petitioner who is serving as an Inspector Customs and Central Excise has filed the instant writ petition seeking the quashing of a departmental charge sheet dated 20.05.2011 issued by an officer of the rank of the Commissioner. - Held that:- petitioner has even responded to the charge sheet in terms of having filed a detailed reply. As on date even Inquiry Officer stands appointed. Against such factual back drop it would not be open for the petitioner to file the present writ petition which can be construed only as an attempt to scuttle the departmental proceedings at the very outset. It is not the case set up on behalf of the petitioner that the charge sheet has been issued by an authority lacking jurisdiction to issue the same. The veracity of the articles of charge raised against the petitioner can only be gone into by the Inquiry Officer upon undertaking an exercise of evaluation and appreciation of documents/evidence brought on record - Decided against petitioner.
