THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.6868 of 2010 ORDER: In this writ petition, the petitioner, who is a driver in Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation, questioned the order bearing No.01/114/(1)/10-JN, dated 10.03.2010, by which, the respondent placed him under suspension pending enquiry. The main allegation mentioned in the impugned order is that one Conductor, by name, Smt.K.Sandhya Rani submitted a complaint against the petitioner stating that he abused her in an un-parliamentary language. Based on the said complaint and the opinion obtained from the Assistant Manager of Jangaon Depot, the respondent passed the impugned order placing the petitioner under suspension pending enquiry. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the allegation made against the petitioner is false and no notice was issued to him before passing the impugned order and that only to tarnish the image of the petitioner, the respondent passed the impugned order. As the impugned order is one for suspension pending enquiry, the petitioner is not entitled to any prior notice. Whether the allegation made against the petitioner as mentioned in the impugned order is correct or not is a matter to be enquired into by the inquiring authority and this Court cannot grant any relief to the petitioner at this stage. Inasmuch as the enquiry is pending against the petitioner, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondent to complete the same within a period of six (6) weeks from today and pass appropriate orders. If for any reason, the enquiry is not completed within the time stipulated by this Court, the respondent shall consider the case of the petitioner for reviewing the order of suspension. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 26th MARCH, 2010. kvni
