IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 201 of 2008 (S/B) Pankaj Suyal .……… Petitioner. Versus Director General of Police and others ………. Respondents Mr. Vijay Bhatt, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. J.P. Joshi, Chief Standing Counsel for respondents. JUDGMENT Coram: Hon’ble V.K. Gupta, C.J. Hon’ble J.C.S. Rawat, J. V.K. GUPTA, C. J. (Oral) The Tribunal has rightly rejected the claim petition of the petitioner because it was not a part of the petitioner’s duty to have gone to Haldwani to purchase and bring the medicine required for the M.L.A. whom the petitioner was supposed to protect as his Gunner at the relevant time. The Tribunal has rightly relied upon the communication dated 22nd January, 2001 from the Home Department, Government of Uttarakhand wherein it has been clearly mentioned that the Gunner deployed to protect a person shall only be performing the security related functions and he shall not be undertaking any other tasks. This petition has no merit. The writ petition is dismissed in limine. (J.C.S. Rawat, J.) (V.K. Gupta, C. J.) 18.08.2008 18.08.2008 LSR/Shiv
