CWP 5451/08 //1// In the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan Jaipur Bench ** Civil Writ Petition No.5451/2008 Rajwant Upadhyay Versus Chairman & MD, Food Corporation of India Date of Order ::: 30/05/08 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ajay Rastogi Mr. Pradeep Asthana, for petitioner Counsel inter-alia submits that after holding disciplinary inquiry, penalty under Food Corporation of India (Staff) Regulations, 1971 has been inflicted upon petitioner – against which appeal was preferred by him; but is pending for last more than three years and at the same time, recovery proceedings have been initiated against him on the basis of penalty inflicted (supra). Since merits are yet to be examined by appellate authority appreciating grievance raised in the appeal, this Court refrains from adjudicating the dispute but at the same time, this Court considers it proper to direct the respondents to decide appeal of petitioner expeditiously but not later than three months on submission of certified copy of this order. However, if petitioner feels aggrieved by final order of appellate authority, he will be free to avail remedy under law. With these directions (supra), writ petition stands disposed of.
