IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.6816 of 2009 Date of Decision: 09.10.2009 Baljinder Kaur Petitioner Versus State of Punjab and others Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASBIR SINGH Present: Mr.K.K.Goel, Advocate for the petitioner ….. Jasbir Singh, J. (Oral) This writ petition has been filed with a prayer to quash order date 22.5.2006 (P1), vide which, the petitioner was ordered to be ejected from the government accommodation, which was allotted to her when she was in service. Further challenge is to an order dated 25.3.2008 (P2), vide which, appeal filed by the petitioner was dismissed. It is contention of counsel for the petitioner that service of notice, upon the petitioner, before starting process of ejectment, was not proper. This Court feels that objection raised is liable to be rejected, as the same appears to have been raised, only with a view to prolong illegal possession of the petitioner in the government accommodation. It is apparent from the records that after issuance of notice, the petitioner refused to receive the summons, many attempts were made and then she was served through substituted process. Thereafter, she appeared Civil Writ Petition No.6816 of 2009 before the competent authority and filed her reply. Taking note of the same and after giving an opportunity to both the parties, to prove their case, ejectment order was passed. The petitioner went in appeal, which was dismissed. It is not in dispute that the petitioner was dismissed from service in the year 2005. Despite notice served upon her, when she failed to vacate the government accommodation, allotted to her, proceedings were initiated for ejectment. It is not disputed that the petitioner had challenged her dismissal order before this Court and her writ petition was dismissed. Matter is pending before the Hon’ble Supreme Court, however, interim stay has not been granted. Once out of service, the petitioner has no right to retain the accommodation. No case is made out for interference. Dismissed. 09.10.2009 (Jasbir Singh) gk Judge 2
