D.I.G., C.R.P.F. HYDERABAD 5. COMMANDANT 130 BN C.R.P.F. MATHURA (U.P) null null 6. DEPUTY COMMANDANT DIRECTORATE C.R.P.F. BLOCK NO.1, HEAD QUARTER, NEW DELHI ----------- 02/ 23.11.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the Union of India. 2. Petitioner at the relevant time was serving the C.R.P.F. as constable (general duty), is aggrieved by the order passed by the Disciplinary Authority, whereunder he has been dismissed from the Force on the ground that he remained under unauthorized absence for 70 days. The order was passed ex parte as the petitioner having joined the Force again deserted and did not file his written defence on the ground that he was mentally ill, was not in a position to file the written defence. Such plea appears to be wholly misconceived, as information about mental illness should have been given to the authorities in the Force by his other family members, but no such information was ever given to the authorities in the Force. The dismissal order has also been affirmed in appeal and revision. 3. In the circumstances, I am not inclined to interfere in the matter and the writ application is dismissed. Arjun/ ( V.N. Sinha, J.)
