The case of the petitioner is that he joined the respondent management on 29.11.2003 as Salesman. On 30.11.2024, he was suspended based on the complaint given by one Mr.G.Deva. Thereafter, a charge sheet was issued on 22.01.2025 and the petitioner gave his reply on 29.01.2025. Now the respondent management concluded that the charges were not proved against the petitioner. Hence the instant writ petition is filed seeking employment and subsistence allowance. 3.
