Mr Kund Tiwary, Advocate ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR JUSTICE MADHURESH PRASAD ORAL JUDGMENT Date : 20-02-2020 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the respondents.

2 Learned counsel for the petitioner, on specific query whether there is any procedural lapse in conduct of the proceedings, submits that procedure has been followed. He, however, submits that the decision is not to his liking as it is his submission that he was not responsible for the works in relation to

Patna High Court CWJC No.2090 of 2020 dt.20-02-2020 2/2 which he has been proceeded with and awarded a minor punishment of withholding of one annual increment with noncumulative effect. 3 The law is well settled. The scope of judicial review of this Court exercising jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is limited to the decision making process, and not the decision itself.

4 Since, admittedly, there is no infirmity in the process leading to the decision, the writ petition is dismissed. (Madhuresh Prasad, J) M.E.H./- AFR/NAFR NAFR CAV DATE NA Uploading Date 29.02.2020 Transmission Date NA
