COMMISSIONER, DEPARTMENTAL ENQUIRY, GOVT. OF BIHAR, ----------- 2. 26.2.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner was placed under suspension on 1.4.2009 in contemplation of departmental proceedings for which charges have been framed on 29.6.2009. He has represented on 30.10.2009 for revocation of his suspension. The grounds are to be found in Paragraph-21 of the writ application and Paragraphs 4 and 5 of the supplementary affidavit where apart from allegations of hostile discrimination, it has been urged that others found responsible have neither been suspended nor departmental proceedings initiated. Learned counsel for the State fairly submits 2 that he has received instruction but is unable to answer the query, if any person alleged to have been involved has not been suspended or subjected to departmental proceedings. If what the petitioner contends is correct, he is entitled to the relief for a direction to the respondents to consider the representation in accordance with law for revocation of his suspension and the same be disposed by a reasoned and speaking order more particularly dealing with his grievance that those similarly situated as him have neither been suspended or subjected to departmental proceedings shall be considered within a maximum period of two months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order, so that judicial review of the same be facilitated. The writ application stands disposed. P. Kumar (Navin Sinha, J.)
