CMPMO No. 498 of 2009 The petition can be disposed of at this stage as from the impugned order dated 17.7.2009 it is evident that no reasons whatsoever have been assigned for rejecting the petitioner’s application for interim stay. The petitioner was appointed as Anganwari Worker in accordance with the “Scheme/Guidelines for the engagement of the Anganwadi Workers/Helpers on honorary basis under ICDS scheme run by Social Justice & Empowerment Department”. On a complaint made by Smt. Sushma Kumari, Smt. Indira Devi and Smt. Seema Devi her appointment as Anganwari Worker in Anganwari centre Takoli Ghirthan was set aside. This order dated 29.6.2009 was passed by Addl. District Magistrate, Kangra at Dharamshala, H.P. Being aggrieved of the same petitioner filed an appeal before the Divisional Commissioner Kangra at Dharamshala inter alia on the grounds that the order dated 29.6.2009 -2- passed by the Addl. District Magistrate is without jurisdiction as in accordance with Clause (12) of the Scheme it was only the Deputy Commissioner who was authorised and could have passed the order. Alongwith the appeal petitioner moved an application for interim stay for the reason that even while the proceedings were pending before the Additional District Magistrate the petitioner continued to function as Anganwari Worker. Undisputedly no reasons have been assigned by the Divisional Commissioner while dismissing the petitioners interim application which is evident from impugned order dated 17.7.2009. Under the circumstances the said order is set aside. It is stated at the Bar that the main appeal is listed before the Divisional Commissioner on 25.8.2009.
