2016 (3) TMI 1461 - HC - Indian LawsSeeking revocation of suspension order based on the Government Circular issued in Letter No.13519/N/2015-1, dated 23.07.2015 - HELD THAT:- In the present case, the petitioner was placed under suspension on 26.08.2011 and the respondent had enhanced his subsistence allowance on 23.07.2012. Thereafter, only on 29.07.2013, he was issued with the charge memo to which it is made clear that he has to face an enquiry. Even after lapse of three years, the respondent has not passed a reasoned order of extension of suspension. However, with regard to the order of suspension, it has been kept pending for a long time. Therefore, as per the judgment of the Hon'ble Apex Court, in the case of AJAY KUMAR CHOUDHARY VERSUS UNION OF INDIA THROUGH ITS SECRETARY & ANR. [2015 (6) TMI 592 - SUPREME COURT] and following the letter mentioned supra issued by the Government in this regard, this Court is of the view that the prolonged suspension is no longer permissible. Hence, this Court finds merit in the contention of the petitioner. The respondent is directed to consider and pass appropriate orders on the petitioner's representation dated 24.02.2016 on merits and in accordance with law - Petition disposed off.
