The case of the petitioner is that he was recruited through TNPSC in the year 1984 and he joined as Village Administrative Officer on 26/10/1987 in Nannilam Taluk, Thanjavur District. He is still continuing in the cadre of Village Administrative Officer. He was trapped by the Vigilance and Anti-Corruption Wing of Thanjavur on 25/8/2010 for alleged demand and acceptance of a sum of Rs.1,000/- from the complainant Thiru.A.Paneer Selvam, Madukkur Road, Pattukottai. Consequent on the same, he was placed under suspension. Later, he was released on bail. 5. He presented a petition dated 15/12/2010 to the respondent to review the order of suspension and to reinstate him into service. Since, the same was not considered by the respondent, the petitioner has approached this Court by way of filing the present writ petition. 6.
