IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA LPA No.341 of 2009 Mintu Kumar Singh, son of Late Ram Kripal Singh, resident of Village- Hariharpur, P.O. Hariharpur, P.S. Samo Bazar, District-Siwan ----(Petitioner) ----- Appellant. Versus 1. The Union of India through the Secretary, Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India, North Block, New Delhi. 2. The Director General, Border Security Force, Government of India, C.G.O. Complex Block No.10, Lodhi Road, New Delhi-3. 3. The Deputy Inspector General, Border Security Force, Border Headquarter Sector, Ferozpur, Punjab. 4. The Commandant Headquarters, 63, B.N. Border Security Force, Pokaran, Jaisalmer, Rajasthan ------ (Respondents) ---- -- Respondents. ----------- 7. 4.11.2009 Heard Mr. S. Azim for the appellant. This appeal under Clause 10 of the Letters Patent of High Court of Judicature at Patna, has been preferred by petitioner of C.W.J.C. No. 3084 of 2001 (Mintu Kumar Singh Vs. The Union of India and others), whereby the writ petition has been dismissed. It appears to us that the petitioner was serving the 63rd Battalion, Boarder Security Force. He was subjected to trial by a Security Force Court for his continued and unauthorized absence from duty from 12.7.1997 to 5.7.1998. He was found guilty which has led to the order of dismissal from service. We find adequate justification for the same. It further appears to us that the petitioner’s track record of service is also uninspiring. He has been given punishment more than once for staying away from duty unauthorisedly. In that view of the matter, 2 we entirely agree with the order of the learned Single Judge. We do not find any merit in this appeal. It is accordingly dismissed. Vinay/ ( S. K.
