THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.26063 of 2011 ORDER: The petitioner was working as Senior Security Officer in the Nizam’s Institute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, the 1st respondent herein. Disciplinary proceedings were initiated and the Executive Registrar passed an order, dated 03.06.2009, imposing the punishment of reducing the status of the petitioner from Chief Security Officer to that of Security Officer and reducing the emoluments to the minimum of pay scale. In the appeal preferred by the petitioner, the appellate authority restored the status as well as emoluments of the petitioner, but imposed the punishment of stoppage of two annual increments, with cumulative effect. The period of suspension was directed to be treated as not on duty. The petitioner filed a review on 03.03.2011, before the 2nd respondent, as provided for under the relevant service rules. His grievance is that no orders have been passed thereon. Heard Sri P.V.Ramana, learned counsel for the petitioner, Sri S.S.Bhatt, learned counsel for the 1st respondent and learned Government Pleader for Medical, Health and Family Welfare, for the 2nd respondent. The petitioner has already been extended substantial relief by the appellate authority. As regards the balance, namely, the manner in which the period of suspension must be treated and imposition of penalty of stoppage of two annual increments, he approached the 2nd respondent. An early disposal of the same would be useful to the petitioner as well as the 1st respondent, so that certainty comes into existence. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the 2nd respondent to pass orders on the review petition filed by the petitioner on 03.03.2011 within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY, J Dt:19.09.2011 GJ
