ORDER

The petitioner is employed in the fourth respondent Bank. He was suspended on 30.04.2013.

Charge memo was issued on 15.03.2013.

On 31.10.2013, the fourth respondent awarded punishment of stoppage of increment for three years with cumulative effect. Suspension period was treated as one of an unearned leave. The petitioner preferred an appeal before the third respondent. The third respondent by order dated 08.12.2014 modified the order under appeal. Suspension was modified. The petitioner preferred a Revision before the second respondent. The second respondent further modified and the stoppage of increment was now made into one of 2 years but without cumulative effect. The suspension period was ordered to be treated as eligible leave. 2.However, till date, the said order has not been implemented by the fourth respondent.

In fact, the second respondent issued notice under Section 155 of the Tamil Nadu Co-operative Societies Act, 1983 calling upon the fourth respondent as to why the order dated 23.02.2016 has not yet been executed. But till date, there is no response from the third and fourth respondent. This inaction on the part of the third and fourth respondent necessitated the institution of the present writ proceedings. 3.When the matter was taken up for disposal, the learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents 1, 2 and 4 on instructions would submit that within one week, the order passed by the second respondent would be implemented. The order of regularization shall be passed within one week from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

4.This writ petition stands allowed. No costs. Sd/- Assistant Registrar /True copy/ Sub Assistant Registrar SKM To 1.The Registrar of Co-operative Societies, No.170, E.V.R. Periyar High Road, Kilpauk, Chennai - 600 010.
