THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.22480 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner was engaged as driver on contract basis in the Waltair Depot of APSRTC on 02-02-2006. Alleging that he caused a fatal accident, the 3rd respondent initiated disciplinary proceedings and passed order dated 15-09-2006, directing deletion of the name of the petitioner from the list of approved candidates. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner preferred an appeal to the 2nd respondent and the appeal was rejected on 24-11-2006. The same is challenged in this writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. A significant development has taken place after the 3rd respondent passed an order directing deletion of the name of the petitioner and rejection of the appeal. The petitioner was tried for the offence under Section 304-A IPC in C.C.No.625 of 2006 in the court of the II Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, Visakhapatnam. The trial court acquitted the petitioner through a judgment, dated 11-10-2007. There are several instances where the Corporation directed reinstatement of the driver, who is removed on allegation of causing fatal accident, in case he was acquitted by the Criminal Court. The petitioner can make such an offer by filing a review before the competent authority citing the acquittal in the criminal case. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to avail the remedy of review. In case the review is filed, the same shall be disposed of as early as possible, since the petitioner is out of employment. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ 17-08-2011 Prv
