THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.22000 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner is employed as a Work Inspector in the Andhra Pradesh State Housing Corporation Limited. When he was working at Adilabad, he was placed under suspension on the allegations of misappropriation on 22.01.2009. An Enquiry Officer was appointed and it is stated that a report was submitted by him after conducting domestic enquiry. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the report was submitted long back, the respondents have not passed any final orders and on account of the same, he is put to hardship. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. The petitioner states that the domestic enquiry was concluded and the Enquiry Officer submitted his report. While the petitioner asserts that the report was submitted in the year 2009 itself, the learned Standing Counsel submits that it was submitted in February, 2011. Be that as it may, the proceedings of this nature cannot be kept pending for a long time. It is in the interest of the organisation itself that final orders are passed in the disciplinary proceedings. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the respondents to finalise the disciplinary proceedings initiated against the petitioner, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If no orders are passed within two months, they shall be under obligation to reinstate the petitioner into service. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt:04.08.2011 Note: Issue cc in one week. (B/o) kdl
