JUSTICE DAYA CHAUDHARY Present:- Mr. MPS Mann, Advocate for the petitioner. **** DAYA CHAUDHARY, J. The grouse of the petitioner in the present petition is that the order of recovery has been passed inspite of the positive finding given in the inquiry. In the inquiry report, it has specifically been mentioned that no loss has been caused to the Department and no demand is there of the amount by the employees. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that an appeal was also filed but no order has been passed on the same. Even a legal notice as well as reminder was sent to the appellate authority but inspite of that nothing has been intimated to the petitioner. It has simply been stated that the reply of the legal notice has been sent and the reasons have been mentioned therein. Even in the reply, no reasoning has been given as to why the claim of the petitioner has been rejected. In view of the submission made by learned counsel for the petitioner, the present petition is disposed of with a direction to the appellate authority i.e. respondent No.3 to consider the case of the petitioner in view of the finding given in the inquiry report and pass a C.W.P. No. 21687 of 2011 (2) speaking order in accordance with law within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of copy of the order. Disposed of accordingly.
