2023 (10) TMI 1075 - PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURTValidity of Inquiry proceedings - Physical presence for all the times by issuing summons - HELD THAT:- The purpose of summoning the petitioner for the enquiry apparently stands satisfied. It is for the respondents to proceed thereafter, in accordance with law in their wisdom if they still feel that further proceedings are to be initiated by issuance of a show cause notice. The provisions of Section 70 of the Act cannot be continued to be used for the purpose of enforcing the presence for all times to come. As noticed, the service is being provided to two Government institutions and there is sufficient record available with the respondents from the said offices. In the peculiar facts and circumstances, no useful purpose would be served to call the petitioner in pursuance of the summons issued under Section 70 of the Act hereafter. The present writ petition disposed off, giving liberty to the respondents to proceed in accordance with law regarding issuance of show cause notice if so required and to proceed further in pursuance to the material which they have already gathered and the statements of the officials which they have already recorded.
