HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.18038 OF 2010 ORDER: Petitioner is appointed as Principal of the 1st respondent Institution. He was removed from service through order dated 13-07-2010. This Writ Petition is filed challenging the said order. 2. It is pleaded that the respondent did not follow the prescribed procedure and straightaway the order of removal was passed. 3. Initially, notice before admission was ordered on 27-07- 2010. Since there was no response from the 1st respondent, the writ petition was admitted on 31-08-2010 and an interim order was passed suspending the order of removal. 4. It is brought to the notice of this Court that the petitioner has since been reinstated. With that, the grievance of the petitioner stands redressed. After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondent, this Court is convinced that the impugned order does not satisfy with the requirements under law. In case, the petitioner is found to have resorted any acts of indiscipline and misconduct, the 1st respondent ought to have issued show cause notice, conducted disciplinary enquiry and passed the final orders thereafter. Since such a procedure was not followed, the impugned order is set aside. It is left open to the 1st respondent to proceed against the petitioner, in accordance with law. 5. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J October 04, 2010. KTL
