HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD LUCKNOW WRIT - A No. - 2000356 of 2002 Court No. - 1 HON'BLE RAJAN ROY, J.
HON'BLE MANJIVE SHUKLA, J.
1. By means of this petition which was filed in 2002, the judgment dated 01.06.2001 passed by the U.P. Public Services Tribunal in Claim Petition No.773 of 1995 has been challenged by the State.
2. There was no stay order in this petition and it is not in dispute that the impugned judgment has, in fact, been complied with. The opposite party no.1 after reinstatement has retired and is getting all the post retiral dues. He is, as of now, 75 years of age.
3. On merits of the matter, Sri Raghuvanshi, learned Standing Counsel appearing for State submits that the Tribunal while allowing the writ petition on the ground of non-furnishing of relevant documents failed to appreciate that these were procedural irregularities whereas the factual position was otherwise.
4. Sri Manish Mishra, counsel for private opposite party no.1 says that in pursuance to the liberty granted by the Tribunal for proceeding afresh, fresh inquiry was held. In 2017, instead of earlier punishment of dismissal, which was quashed by the Tribunal, punishment of recovery of Rs.7,04,096/-, which was a minor punishment, was awarded.
5. Considering the subsequent development, it is hardly a matter for interference at this belated stage, especially as, a fresh inquiry was held thereafter and a minor punishment was awarded. We find no merit in this Versus Counsel for Petitioner(s) : C.S.C.
