While declining the prayer for reinstatement, the respondents awarded compensation of Rs.20,000/- to the petitioner.

Considering the fact that the petitioner has lost the job, the compensation awarded shall stand enhanced to a sum of Rs.50,000/-, which would appear reasonable. Subject to this, the writ petition stands dismissed. September 28, 2010 ( RANJIT SINGH ) monika JUDGE
