IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CWP No.21744 CAT of 2010 Date of decision : 07.12.2010 Brij Mohan … Petitioner Versus Central Administrative Tribunal, Chandigarh and others …Respondents Coram: Hon’ble Mr.Justice M.M.Kumar Hon’ble Ms.Justice Ritu Bahri Present: Mr.Peeush Gagneja, Advocate for the petitioner. 1. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 2. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? M.M.Kumar, J. The instant petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution is directed against order dated 13.8.2010 passed by Central Administrative Tribunal, Chandigarh (for brevity the ‘Tribunal) holding that respondent No.4- Nathu Ram belong to OBC category and he was found meritorious than the petitioner. The argument of the petitioner is that respondent No.4-Nathu Ram submitted his OBC certificate belatedly, has not been accepted by observing that certificate was submitted by him on the last date of filing of the application but the same was not found in proper format. Lateron, he submitted the certificate on the proper format so such submission of certificate would be mere irregularity and would not constitute a fatal lapse. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner, we are of the considered view that there is no illegality in the order passed by the Tribunal which may warrant admission of the writ petition. The writ petition is wholly without merit and the same is accordingly, dismissed. (M.M.Kumar ) Judge (Ritu Bahri) Judge 07.12.2010 sd
