O R D E R
With consent of both parties, the writ petition is taken up for final disposal at the admission stage itself.
2. The prayer in the writ petition is to quash the impugned order dated 01.04.2015, terminating the petitioner from service. The learned counsel for the TASMAC states that the appeal dated 27.05.2015 is filed against the termination order. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that no witness was examined in the enquiry and no documents were marked but the statement of the workman was simply recorded and based on such enquiry, he was dismissed from service.
4. If such a procedure is followed, it has been well settled that the dismissal order will not stand the scrutiny of law. However, I am not deciding those factual issues and the issues are left for the decision of the appellate authority.
5. In these circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the appellate authority to decide the appeal on merits and in accordance with law, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of the order. No costs. Sd/- Assistant Registrar(CO) //True Copy// Sub Assistant Registrar vsi To 1.
