With reference to the question involved in this appeal to the effect that the punishment sought to be imposed by stopping the annual increments with cumulative effect, this Court has already taken a view as per the judgment of this Court in W.A.No.773 of 2005, dated 10-4-2006 holding that the same would amount to imposition of major punishment, and therefore, the enquiry as contemplated under the regulations cannot be dispensed with. Following the same, we do not find any merits in the present Writ Appeal and the same is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ______________________ (B.PRAKASH RAO, J) __________________ (D.APPA RAO, J) 13-04-2006. Msr.
