Smeeta Paul v. Union Of India And ORS.

23.08.2021 SL No.16 Court No.16 (gc) WPCT 16 of 2021 Smeeta Paul Vs.

Union of India & Ors.

(Via Video Conference) Mr. Joyjit Dutta, Mr. Barun Chatterjee, ...for the Petitioner.

Mr. Naba Kr. Das, ...for the N-E.F. Railway.

We have heard the learned Counsel for the parties. We find no explanation for not joining the Group-D post. It appears that in spite of issuance of the appointment letter on 29th April, 2014, the writ petitioner did not join the service till April, 2017 and in view of the fact that the panel had expired the Railway authorities have declined to consider the case of the writ petitioner.

On such consideration, we do not find any reason to interfere with the order passed by the Tribunal. The writ petition being WPCT 16 of 2021 is, accordingly, dismissed.

However, there shall be no order as to costs. All parties shall act on the server copies of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. (Hiranmay Bhattacharyya, J.) (Soumen Sen, J.)
