K.Ananda Reddy v. The State Of Andhra Pradesh,

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTI CE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY AND THE HON'BLE SMT JUSTI CE KONGARA VI JAYA LAKSHMI WRI T PETI TI ON No.33289 of 2017 Between:

K.Ananda Reddy ..Petitioner and The State of Andhra Pradesh, represented by its Principal Secretary, Revenue (Vigilance-II) Department, Guntur and another ..Respondents Counsel for the petitioner: Mr.K.G.Krishna Murthy, for Mr.K.Ramamohan Counsel for the respondents: Government Pleader for Services (A.P.) The Court made the following:

CVNR,J & KVL,J W.P.No.33289 of 2017 ORDER: (Per the Hon'ble Sri Justice C.V.Nagarjuna Reddy) This writ petition is filed by the applicant in O.A.No.2733 of 2017 on the file of the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad (for short 'the Tribunal') feeling aggrieved by issuance of notice by the Tribunal returnable in six weeks.

2.

The petitioner was dismissed from service by G.O.Ms.No.413, Revenue (Vigilance-II) Department, dated 19.09.2017, issued by respondent No.1 in exercise of its suo motu revisional power under Rule 40 of the Andhra Pradesh Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, 1991 (for short 'the Rules').

3.

Mr.K.G.Krishna Murthy, learned senior counsel appearing for Mr.K.Ramamohan, learned counsel for the petitioner, has submitted that as the Tribunal has not passed ad interim order, the order of dismissal impugned before it is likely to come into effect causing serious prejudice to the interests of his client.

4.

Considering the fact that no order prejudicial to the interests of the petitioner has been passed by the Tribunal so far, we are not inclined to interfere at this stage. If the petitioner is able to make out a strong case for granting of interim relief after notice is returned, the Tribunal could still grant such relief in his favour pending the O.A. 5.

In the above view of the matter, without adjudicating on the merits of the case, the Writ Petition is disposed of, by permitting the petitioner to request the Tribunal to pass an appropriate order on the interim relief claimed by him, immediately on service of notices on the respondents. On such request being made, the Tribunal shall pass an appropriate order on the interim relief, as expeditiously as possible, by fixing a specific date for hearing.

CVNR,J & KVL,J W.P.No.33289 of 2017 6.

As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.41405 of 2017 filed by the petitioner for interim relief shall stand disposed of as infructuous.
