Though the petitioner contended that he did not commit any dereliction of duty as contended by the respondent, he did not point out any procedural irregularity in the process of the order of suspension. Therefore, this Court will not interfere with the order of suspension during the pendency of enquiry. Since the petitioner is contending that the concerned authority did not consider the circumstances explained him, he is at liberty to make an application to the respondent and after receipt of such representation, the respondent shall examine the matter by perusing all the relevant papers and consider whether the request of the petitioner, to revoke the suspension, can be accepted and pass appropriate orders. The petitioner is directed to submit his explanation to the charge memo and the respondent is directed to expedite the enquiry. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ___________________ Dr.G.YETHIRAJULU,J 19th NOVEMBER 2004 *TSNR TO 1. The Depot Manager, A.P. State Road Transport Corporation, Karimnagar Depot, Karimnagar District. 2.
