C.M. disposed of. LPA No. 1632 of 2010 The appeal is directed against a part of the order dated 24.9.2010 whereby costs of ` 20000/- has been awarded against the appellant. We have considered the grounds on which the costs has been imposed. On such consideration we are of the view that the order of the learned Single Judge imposing costs upon the appellant need LPA No. 1632 of 2010 [2] to be maintained. As the appellant has already deposited the costs amount no question of reduction of the same can and does arise. However, we make it clear that the award of costs against the appellant will not be construed in any adverse manner in the service career of the appellant. Appeal is disposed of in the above terms. (RANJAN GOGOI) CHIEF JUSTICE (AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH) JUDGE 24.02.2011 'ravinder'
