1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY O. O. C. J. WRIT PETITION NO. 2044 OF 2009 Gangadhar Baban Gagare. ...Petitioner. Vs. The Municipal Corporation of Gr.Mumbai & Ors. ...Respondents. .... Mr.J. Reis with Mr. Rajendra R. Mishra for the Petitioner. Mr. R.S. Apre with Ms.T.H. Puranik for the Respondents. ..... CORAM : DR.D.Y.CHANDRACHUD, J. November 30, 2009. P.C. The Petitioner who was an Assistant Engineer, was arrested on 13th January 2009 in a trap case. An order of suspension was passed on 3rd March 2009 with retrospective effect from 15th January 2009. Several representations were filed by the Petitioner which were rejected by the Municipal Corporation on 15th September 2009. In a situation such as the present where the Petitioner had been arrested in a trap case, it would be inappropriate for this Court, particularly at the present stage, to exercise the writ jurisdiction under 2 Article 226 of the Constitution, by directing the Municipal Corporation to take the Petitioner back on duty. The Division Bench had in its judgment in the State of Maharashtra vs. Kishore Bhalchandra Kulkarni, 2006 (109) FLR 787 ruled against such interference. The grievance of the Petitioner is that his representation dated 14th September 2009, upon which the Municipal Commissioner had called for remarks of the ACB, has still not been disposed of. If that be so, it would, of course, be for the Municipal Commissioner to take appropriate action if the representation has not already been disposed of. However, in so far as this Court is concerned, no direction can be issued of the nature that is sought. The Petition is dismissed. .....
