Though the prayer in the writ petition is to quash the suspension order dated 21.01.2015, the learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the date is wrongly mentioned, as the correct order of suspension is dated 29.05.2014. The learned counsel for the petitioner has therefore requested to amend the prayer. The petitioner is granted permission to correct the date of suspension order in this writ petition.
