THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 10/02/2011,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: rs T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR,J. ------------------------------------- W.P.(C)No.4357 Of 2011-T ----------------------------------------------------- DATED THIS THE 10th DAY OF FEBRUARY, 2011 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is the Manager of a Vocational Higher Secondary School. The 3rd respondent is a Clerk working there, from 1981. Alleging certain misconduct on the part of the 3rd respondent, she was suspended from service on 3.1.2011 for 15 days. The above order of suspension was not extended by the 2nd respondent and the request of the petitioner in that regard was rejected also. Therefore, the petitioner has reinstated the 3rd respondent in service already. 2. The petitioner filed a revision petition before the Government under Rule 92 of Chapter XIV-A of KER as per Exhibit P3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the suspension ordered was on genuine grounds and therefore the refusal to grant the request to extend the period of suspension cannot be justified. 3. I am not going into the merits of the matter, since the revision petition is still pending before the Government. There will be a direction to the Government to take a decision on W.P.(C)No.4357/11 -2- Exhibit P3 revision petition, after hearing the petitioner and the 3rd respondent, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner will produce a copy of the Writ Petition along with a copy of this judgment for compliance. The Writ petition is disposed of as above.
