WP(MD)No. 9364/2011 : Petition filed under Article 226 of the constitution of India to issue a writ of mandamus, directing the respondents to defer the oral enquiry in P.R.No.68/2011 dated 7.7.2011 on the file of the 1st respondent. For Appellant : Mr.M.S.Soundararajan For Respondents : Mr.R.Karthikeyan Special Government Pleader JUDGMENT [Judgment of the Court was delivered BY P.JYOTHIMANI, J] This Writ Appeal is directed against the order of the learned Single Judge dated 22.08.2011 made in W.P.(MD).No.9364 of 2011. 2. Admittedly, in the departmental proceedings initiated as against the appellant, witness examinations were completed, and therefore, under such circumstances, if there are identical facts in the criminal case as well as in the departmental proceedings, there is no question of deferment of the departmental proceedings till the criminal case is over, for the simple reason that the defence of the delinquent has already been exposed in the departmental proceedings. In such view of the matter, we do not see any reason to interfere with the order of the learned Single Judge. Therefore, the Writ Appeal stands dismissed. No costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petition is also dismissed.
