(Passed on 11-3-2008) The petitioner has approached this Court at the stage of oompletlon of enquiry without awaiting decision of the disciplinary authority on the enquiry report. The soie contention of the petitioner is that a criminal oase is pending consideration, the enquiry report should not be acted upon by the disoiplinary authority. 2) I have ieamed counsel appearing for the parties, perused the pleadings and documents appended thereto. This petition appears to be pre-mature as the '~a, '<fe X.A S 'SK~VSSQSf. 'f '•.aigaiit '.^ Jr^t ^ESi^S^ Raju enquiry authority acts on behaif of the disciplinary authority and the disciplinary authority has not yet applied hls/her mind to the enquiry report. The contention raised herein can very well be raised before the disciptinary authority when the disciplinary authority considers the case and passes the appropriate order. 3) Thus, this petition is dismissed as being pre-mature. ^ ^- SSfsIC^ ^v^8
