WP(C) 5606/2009 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE B. K. SHARMA Heard Mr. C. Deka, learned counsel for the petitioner as well as Ms. Bor a, learned Standing Counsel, Health. The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 25.10.2009 (Annexure-A), by which her honorary service as ASHA in the office of the SDM & HO, Kamalpur PH C, has been dispensed with. According to the petitioner, the order dated 25.10.2 009 being stigmatic, the same is not sustainable in law. The respondents have filed their counter affidavit, in which they have s tated about the misconduct on the part of the petitioner. It has also been state d that ASHA is a voluntary worker recognized by the Govt. to provide coordinatio n/linkage between the community of nearly 1000 population. It has also been stat ed that being a voluntary worker, the petitioner is not entitled to any salary. Although, in the impugned order dated 25.10.2009, the SDM & HO has state d about termination of the service against the post but the fact of the matter i s that the petitioner was not holding any post as such but was rendering her vol untary service. This precisely the reason as to why there is no appointment orde r in her favour. However, the order speaks of misbehaviour on her part with dire ction to release all official documents, instruments supplied to her by the PHC. In view of the above and by way of giving all reasonable opportunity to her, it is hereby provided that the petitioner may make a representation against the order dated 25.10.2009 within 15 (fifteen) days from today to the authority which passed the impugned order dated 25.10.2009. While making the representati on, the petitioner may also deal with the complaint about which there is mention in the counter affidavit including the Annexure-II representation dated 19.5.20 09. In the event of making such representation, the authority shall pass a s peaking order as expeditiously as possible, preferably within three weeks from t he date of receipt of the representation. If need be, the petitioner may also be provided a personal hearing. Depending on the outcome of the consideration of t he representation, the future course of action in the matter will be governed. With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of, without how ever, any order as to costs.
