Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.GANESH BHUJANGA RAO VADDURI Counsel for the Respondents: MR.P.NAGESWAR SREE The Court at the admission stage made the following O R D E R: This writ petition is filed against the award passed by the Industrial Tribunal-II, Hyderabad in I.D.No.1 of 2001 dated 07.09.2001. Alleging that the petitioner has committed certain irregularities, departmental enquiry was conducted against the petitioner. The Enquiry Officer submitted his report to the disciplinary authority stating that the charges levelled against the petitioner are proved. The disciplinary authority, by proceedings dated 09.06.1995, passed the order of removal. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner filed an I.D. No.1 of 2001 before the Tribunal. The Tribunal, by order dated 07.09.2001, dismissed the award. Hence this writ petition. Neither any witness was examined nor any document was marked on behalf of the petitioner to prove that the enquiry conducted by the disciplinary authority was contrary to the rules. It is not the case of the petitioner that he was not afforded any opportunity nor respondent has violated the principles of natural justice. As the Tribunal gave a finding that the enquiry was conducted properly, it cannot be said that the enquiry conducted is perverse or contrary to law. Hence, there are no grounds to interfere with the impugned award passed by the Tribunal. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No costs. 23.02.2004 usd To 1.
