JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA. HON'BLE MS. JUSTICE NIRMALJIT KAUR. PRESENT: MR. V.D. SHARMA, ADVOCATE FOR THE PETITIONER. ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA, J.(ORAL) The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 24.4.2009, vide which his suspension from the post of Sarpanch was held to be good. Learned counsel submits that the petitioner has been suspended merely on a complaint filed by one of the rivals and no enquiry was conducted before suspending him. A perusal of the impugned order passed by the learned Single Judge shows that a preliminary enquiry was conducted by the Sub Divisional Magistrate (Civil) Jind and prima facie the allegations of embezzlement have been found against the petitioner. In view of the above, the suspension of the petitioner is just and proper. There is no ground to interfere in the impugned order passed by the learned Single Judge. No merit. Dismissed.
