The petitioner is wife of the deceased Krishnan, who was a former employee of the respondent's office. The said Writ Petition is the second round of litigation. Earlier a Writ Petition in W.P.(MD)No.17026 of 2012 was filed by the petitioner for the same relief and the same was also dismissed on 28.06.2019, in view of no instruction from the petitioner. Later this Writ Petition was filed. 3.However, the impugned order of removal from service with respect to the deceased employee Krishnan was as early as in the year 1990 and having slept over the same for more than 22 years, the petitioner had approached this Court only in the year 2012 at the first instance.
