SB CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.6002/2002 (Dr.Karan Singh Vs. State of Raj.) Date of Order :: 04-01-2008 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE P.S. ASOPA Mr.H.S.Khandelwal with Mr.M.M.Ranjan, for the petitioner. Dr.A.S.Khangarot & Dr.Shyam Sharma, for the State. By this writ petition, the petitioner has sought an appropriate writ, order or direction to sanction the voluntary retirement. The applications for seeking voluntary retirement were rejected vide orders dated 18.5.2000 and 3.1.2002 on the ground that one departmental enquiry is pending against the petitioner, therefore, it is not possible to sanction the voluntary retirement. Both the counsel for the parties are in agreement that the enquiry initiated vide order dated 14.3.2000 under Rule 16 of the Rajasthan Civil Service (Clasification, Control and Appeal) Rules, has culminated in exoneration and now no enquiry is pending against the petitioner. I have considered the above aspect of the matter and is of the view that the respondents should now consider the grievance of the petitioner and they are directed to pass an appropriate order on the application of the petitioner for voluntary retirement within two months from the date of production of certified copy of this order. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. (P.S. ASOPA),J. Sandeep/- 20
