CW 11812/09 //1// In the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan Jaipur Bench ** Civil Writ Petition No.11812/2009 Om Prakash Arora Versus State & Ors. Date of Order ::: 18/09/09 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Rastogi Mr. DD Khandelwal, for petitioner Petitioner while working as Patwari was placed under suspension on a criminal case (FIR- 94/07 Police Station ACB-Out Post Bharatpur) being registered against him under Prevention of Corruption Act in exercise of powers U/r 13 of Rajasthan Civil Services (Classification, Control & Appeal) Rules, 1958 (“CCA Rules”) vide order dt.07/04/07 (Ann.2). As per his own saying, challan has been filed obviously after sanction of prosecution U/s 19 of the PC Act but the charges have not been framed, so far. Counsel submits that petitioner is facing suspension since April, 2007 for last more than two years and criminal case registered against him will take its own time and its pendency is causing prejudice. It is not the case of petitioner that the authority was not competent while taking decision in placing the petitioner under suspension upon FIR being registered against him under PC Act. His only grievance is of prolong suspension. CW 11812/09 //2// However, looking to nature of charges imputed, on which challan has been filed against petitioner, this Court does not find justification to interfere in the order impugned at this stage. However, petitioner would be at liberty to make fresh representation/appeal U/r 22 of CCA Rules and if filed, it is expected from competent authority to objectively consider the same about continuation of his suspension and it may take independent decision in accordance with law. With the observations (supra), writ petition stands disposed of. (Ajay Rastogi), J. K.Khatri/p.2/ 11812CW09Spt18-DsRepSus.doc
