The petitioner has challenged the impugned intimation dated 11.08.2021 communicating the decision to recover the incentives increments granted to the petitioner from June 2010. The impugned communication is a mere intimation of the audit objection. Therefore, there cannot be any recovery in terms of the impugned intimation.
2.The 3rd respondent is required to issue a proper notice to the petitioner. The petitioner is therefore required to submit a reply justifying the incentive increments granted to the petitioner. It is only pursuant to the aforesaid exercise, any recovery can be made.
3.In the light of the above, this writ petition is disposed by directing the 3rd respondent to issue a proper notice to the petitioner, and to thereafter pass appropriate orders on merits after considering the representation of the petitioner. It is made clear that no recovery can be made based on the impugned intimation. This writ petition is disposed with the above observations. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
