Dr. Sk Moinuddin v. The State Of Telangana,

HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V.AFZULPURKAR W.P.No.33328 of 2015 ORDER:

The writ petition is clearly misconceived, as the petitioners being members of the general public have no locus standi to seek initiation of disciplinary proceedings against an officer of the Government, as such matters are entirely between the employer and employee and not for the members of the general public. The facts of the case also show that an officer, who has passed adverse orders against the petitioners, is threatened of disciplinary case being initiated against him by the petitioners, by making representations to the 1st respondent. The 1st respondent under Memo, dated 09-06-2015 directed respondents 2 and 3 to examine the petitioners' request and intimate the action taken report. The present writ petition is filed alleging inaction.

So far as the petitioners' rights to the property are concerned, they are free to ventilate their grievance in that regard in accordance with law by taking appropriate steps. However, they cannot ask for disciplinary case to be initiated against any officer of the State and it is entirely the discretion of the Government to take necessary steps, if any action is warranted against his officers. The writ petition accordingly deserves to be dismissed at this stage. While the order is being dictated, the petitioners' counsel seeks leave of this Court to withdraw the writ petition. His request is rejected, as the matter is already heard and being disposed of.

Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. Miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending, shall stand closed. _______________________
