Learned counsel for the petitioner, by referring to certain documents, tries to demonstrate this Court that the said allegation was false. The suspension order is clearly in contemplation of a departmental proceeding. At this stage, this Court cannot go into the merits of the allegation levelled against the petitioner for which a departmental proceeding is under contemplation. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the charge has already been framed against the petitioner. Obviously, the departmental proceeding is going on now. This Court does not find that this case is fit for interference by this Court at this stage. The writ application is dismissed. PN (J.N. Singh, J.)
