As far as suspension order is concerned, since same has been revoked, the prayer made herein has rendered infructuous. 4. If the petitioner is aggrieved by giving posting at Suket, he is at liberty to submit a representation before the respondents, in that respect. [2025:RJ-JP:29565] (2 of 2) [CW-16511/2024] 5. Counsel for the petitioner has raised a grievance that respondents are harassing the petitioner as at one hand, after reinstatement, he has been posted at Suket and on the another hand, inquiry pursuant to the charge-sheet has been initiated at Jaipur. Learned counsel has pointed out that participation in the departmental inquiry by the petitioner at Jaipur is too cumbersome and oppressive. Hence, his prayer is that at least inquiry may be directed to be conducted at Kota so that petitioner may defend the charges in accordance with law. 6. This Court is of considered opinion that it is settled law that the delinquent employee should be given full opportunity to defend the charges and to appear in the disciplinary inquiry; should be considered following the principle of natural justice. 7. Counsel for the respondents do admit that if the inquiry is going on at Jaipur, since posting of petitioner is at Suket, Kota, inquiry should be transferred to Kota as same would be in adherence to the principle of natural justice. 8. Hence, this Court is of considered opinion that admittedly after reinstatement of petitioner, he has been given posting under AEN (O&M) JPD Suket, Kota, hence, the inquiry if pending at Jaipur, be transferred to Kota and concluded at that place. 9. With the aforesaid direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. 10. Pending application, if any, also stand disposed of. (SUDESH BANSAL),J TN/101
