By way of filing the instant writ petition, a challenge has been led to the inquiry report dated 27.10.2017 as well as the removal order dated 02.11.2017. 3. At the outset, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents apprised this Court that vide Board Meeting dated 19.01.2019, the order of removal of the petitioner dated 02.11.2017 has been withdrawn. Hence, under the changed circumstances, no cause of action survives with the petitioner to continue with the instant petition and the same has become infructuous. 4. Per contra, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the proceedings initiated in pursuance of the inquiry report dated 27.10.2017 is still pending. Counsel submits that without issuing any proper notice and without [2026:RJ-JP:86] (3 of 3) [CW-19861/2017] affording any opportunity of hearing to the petitioner, the impugned order has been passed, which has resulted in violation of principles of natural justice. 5. Considering the limited submissions made by learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court deems it just and proper to dispose of the instant writ petition with directions to the Inquiry Authority to proceed against the petitioner strictly in accordance with law, after providing him proper opportunity of hearing and then pass a reasoned and speaking order, expeditiously as early as possible, preferably within a period of four months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. 6. With the aforesaid observations, the instant writ petition stands disposed of. Stay application and all pending application(s), if any, also stands disposed of. (ANOOP KUMAR DHAND),J Aayush Sharma /1
