conduct proposed to be charged. In the
present impugned order it has been
mentioned
that
the
petitioner
has
committed
various
irregularities
e.g.
irregularity in expenditure of money,
irregularities in the construction of handpump and platform, misuse of his post
etc. In our opinion this gives sufficient
indication of the nature of the charges and
the detailed charges will be given in the
charge sheet which should be given as
soon as possible.

6. Learned counsel for the petitioner
has then relied on the First Proviso to
Rule 4 of the U.P. Government Servant
(Discipline and Appeal) Rule 1999 which
states "Provided that suspension should
not be resorted to unless the allegations
against the Government Servant are so
serious that in the event of their being
established may ordinarily warrant major
penalty"

7. We have already observed above
that there is indication of the nature of
charges against the petitioner in the
suspension order. We have also observed
that detailed charges need not be
mentioned in the suspension order, as the
suspension order is not a substitute for a
charge sheet.

8. The charges mentioned in the
impugned order are serious enough in the
event of their being established to warrant
major penalty. It may be mentioned that
suspension itself is not a punishment.
There
are
situations
that
call
for
immediate action against a Government
servant or a servant of some other body .
In view of the seriousness of the misconduct or the circumstances, immediate
action may be required It is not therefore,
necessary to give opportunity of hearing
or detailed reasons in the suspension order
as a suspension order is not a quasi
judicial order at all. A suspension order is
an administrative order and hence the
rules of natural justice need not be
complied
with
before
passing
a
suspension order. The rules of natural
justice have to be complied with only
when a penalty is being imposed e.g.
dismissal of service or reduction of salary,
but as stated above a suspension order is
not a penalty.

9. Thus there is no force in this writ
petition. It is dismissed.

10. We however direct that the
enquiry against the petitioner shall be
completed preferably within three months
from the date of production of a certified
copy of this order before the authority
concerned in accordance with law.

deputation reversion to parent post held
proper

Held - Para 4sa

In our opinion the petitioner has no lien
or right to hold the post in the State
Ayurvedic College, Varanasi as she was
only attached to that college and hence
she was purely on deputation there. It is
settled law that a deputationist has no
right to hold the post to which he or she
is sent on deputation, vide JT 2000(6)

(Delivered by Hon'ble M. Katju, J.)

1. Heard learned counsel for the
petitioner.

2. The petitioner has prayed for a
mandamus directing the respondents not
to relieve the petitioner from her present
place of posting at State Ayurvedic
College and Hospital Atarra.

3. It appears that petitioner was
appointed by order dated 16.6.88 as
Medical
Officer,
at
Government
Ayurvedic Hospital Talbeahat Lalitpur. In
the year 1990 the petitioner was attached
with State Ayurvedic College, Varanasi
and was deputed for teaching job vide
Annexure-2 and 3 to the writ petition. It is
alleged in paragraph 6 of the petition that
since then the petitioner is doing teaching
job in the college

4. In our opinion the petitioner has
no lien or right to hold the post in the
State Ayurvedic College, Varanasi as she
was only attached to that college and
hence she was purely on deputation there.
It is settled law that a deputationist has no
right to hold the post to which he or she is
sent on deputation, vide JT 2000(6) 574,
J.T. 1999 (7) S.C. 44, etc.

5. It appears that the State
Government by means of order dated
22.10.2002
directed
the
Director,
Ayurvedic and Unani Services, U.P. to
detach all the Medical Officers and place
them on their original place of posting
vide Annexure-10 to the writ petition. The
petitioner has only a lien on her original
place of posting and not the place where
she was attached.

6. Thus we find no illegality in the
impugned
order.
The
petition
is
dismissed.
