Headnote | SERVICE LAW: Disciplinary proceedings - Punishment of dismissal from service on 23.4.1985 - Full Bench of High Court ordered reinstatement on the ground that non-supply of enquiry report had caused serious prejudice to the delinquent employee and on that basis set aside the order of punishment and directed the disciplinary authority to grant an opportunity to the employee to reply to enquiry report and pass appropriate orders after granting personal hearing to him - The Bank completed the disciplinary proceedings and passed an order of dismissal with retrospective effect - Challenged - Held: The direction of Full Bench of High Court for reinstatement was a direction for reinstatement for the purpose of holding a fresh enquiry from the stage of furnishing the report and no more - The Bank passed an order of dismissal on 22.11.2001 with effect from 23.4. 1985 - On the face of the said order, it is absolutely unacceptable that the Bank in 2001 can pass an order with effect from 23.4.1985 which would amount to annulment of the earlier judgment of the Full Bench of High Court - When on the date of non-furnishing of the enquiry report, the delinquent officer was admittedly not under suspension, but was in service, he would continue in service till he is dismissed from service in accordance with law or superannuated in conformity with the Regulations - The order of removal cannot be made retrospective.STATE BANK OF PATIALA (OFFICERS') SERVICE REGULATIONS, 1979: A Regulation 19(1), provisos - Date of superannuation - Entitlement to back wages - Whether till the date of superannuation or till the date of dismissal - Held: The first proviso to Regulation 19(1) states that the period of service can be extended by the discretion of the competent authority and such extension has to be desirable in the interest of the Bank - Unless an extension is granted by a positive or an affirmative act by the competent authority, an officer of the Bank retires on attaining age of 58 years or upon the completion of 30 years of service, whichever occurs first - Order of dismissal was passed on 22.11.2001 while the employee completed 30 years of service on 25.2.1992 - The claim for grant of full salary for the whole period till the order of removal is, therefore, not sustainable as the officer stood superannuated on completion of 30 years - His continuance by virtue of the order passed by the High Court has to be treated as a deemed continuance for the purposes of finalization of the disciplinary proceeding only. |

NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources.
