S.B. Civil Writ Petition No. 993/2009 Krishna Chandra Pandya Vs. The State of Rajasthan and Others. Date of order : 16.02.2009 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE H.R.PANWAR Mr. P.P.Chaudhary for the petitioner. By the instant writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the petitioner has challenged the order Annex.P-2 dated 28.01.2009 placing the petitioner under suspension. The order of suspension is appealable under Rule 22 of the Rajasthan Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1958 which provides that a Government servant may appeal against an order of suspension to the authority to which the authority which made or is deemed to have made the order, is immediately subordinate. In this view of the matter, when the petitioner has alternative statutory remedy of appeal which is efficacious in nature, the writ petition is not entertainable and therefore, it is dismissed. However, it will be open for the petitioner to challenge the order impugned by way of an appeal before competent authority and if the petitioner files such an appeal within one month from today, the competent authority shall consider and decide the same utmost expeditiously preferably within one month from the date of filing of the appeal.
