THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.10608 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner is appointed as a Field Assistant for Penubarthi Village, Gurla Mandal, Vizianagaram District. He was removed from that office through order, dated 22.06.2010 passed by the Mandal Parishad Development Officer, 2nd respondent herein. The petitioner submits that not a single allegation was made against him, much less any enquiry was conducted. Though notice before admission was issued way back in April 2011, the respondents have not filed any counter affidavit. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. A perusal of the impugned order discloses that the 2nd respondent issued a memo to the petitioner alleging that he did not respond to an earlier memo, in which some irregularities were pointed out, and that since the explanation submitted by the petitioner to the subsequent memo is not satisfactory, he is removed from service. Reference is made to certain alleged lapses, such as many works having been executed on the same day. No enquiry was conducted, much less anya specific instance of irregularity was mentioned. It was not even alleged that the petitioner had misappropriated any amount or caused financial loss under the programme. Therefore, the writ petition is allowed and the impugned order is set aside. The 2nd respondent shall reinstate the petitioner into service forthwith. There shall be no order as to costs. __________ 22.09.2011 JSU THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.
