IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) MONDAY, THE TWENTY FIFTH DAY OF JANUARY TWO THOUSAND AND TEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION No. 869_OF 2010 Between: M.Ravinder ..... PETITIONER AND The Managing Director, Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation, Musheerabad, Hyderabad and another .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner: Counsel for the Respondents: The Court made the following : THE HON’BLE Ms. JUSTICE G. ROHINI WRIT PETITION No. 869 OF 2010 ORDER : This writ petition is filed seeking a declaration that the order dated 19.12.2009 passed by the 2nd respondent-Depot Manager, Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation, Hanamkonda, thereby placing the petitioner under suspension pending enquiry into the alleged cash and ticket irregularities as arbitrary and illegal. As could be seen from the material on record, a charge sheet was issued on 19.12.2009 itself framing four charges against the petitioner. The learned counsel for the petitioner states that the petitioner has already submitted his explanation and the enquiry is in progress. Having heard the learned counsel for both the parties though I do not find any justifiable reason to interfere with the impugned order of suspension, having regard to the facts and circumstances, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondents to conclude the disciplinary proceedings initiated against the petitioner expeditiously. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to conclude the disciplinary proceedings initiated against the petitioner vide charge sheet dated 19.12.2009 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of this order, failing which the impugned order of suspension shall stand set aside and the petitioner shall be re- instated into service. No costs. _____________ G. ROHINI, J. Dt. 25.01.2010 Ivd
