Petitioner has challenged his suspension vide order dated 21st of August,2008 contained in Annexure-11. From orders passed on same date contained in Annexure-14 and 15 it is clear that the authorities have considered the allegations and have already initiated a disciplinary proceeding against the petitioner on 21.8.2008 itself. In the facts of the case, this Court finds no illegality in the order of suspension. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed. It goes without saying that the authority shall take all steps to conclude the disciplinary proceeding expeditiously and preferably within four months from the date of production/communication of a copy of this order in case the petitioner cooperates in the said proceeding. perwez (Shiva Kirti Singh,J.)
