The Secretary, Min.Of Defence & Ors vs Prabhash Chandra Mirdha on 30 April, 2007

In Secretary, Ministry of Defence and others v. Prabhash Chandra Mirdha, 2012 (4) RSJ 484, it has been laid down by the Supreme Court that ordinarily a writ application does not lie against a charge sheet or show cause notice for the reason that it does not give rise to any cause of action. It does not amount to an adverse order which affects the right of any party unless the same has been issued by a person having no jurisdiction/competence to do so. A writ lies when some right of a party is infringed. In fact, charge sheet does not infringe the right of a party. It is only when a final order imposing the punishment or otherwise adversely affecting a party is passed, it may have a grievance and cause of action. Thus, a charge sheet or show cause notice in disciplinary proceedings should not ordinarily be quashed by the Court. It was further held that normally a charge sheet is not quashed prior to the conclusion of the inquiry on the ground that the facts stated in the charge sheet are erroneous for the reason that correctness or truth of the charge is the function of the disciplinary authority. It was also held that neither the disciplinary proceedings nor the charge sheet should be quashed at an initial stage as it would be a premature stage to deal with the issues. The position prevailing at present in the department inquiry is that a sitting Judge of the High Court on the Administrative side is seized of the inquiry and proceedings are going on. Evidence is being recorded. The petitioner would have every right to submit his point of view in accordance with law before the inquiry officer. Therefore, at this stage, it would be wholly inappropriate to interfere in the inquiry that is going on at an intermediary stage and nullifying or in any case keep in

2), 09.02.2024 (Annexure P-3) and 21.06.2018 (Annexure P-4), regarding less storage gain/assured gain in wheat stocks for the crop years 2012-13, 2013-14, 2014-15 at PUNSUP Storage Centre Tarn Taran. He further submits that there are no storage norms for the said period for the Food Corporation of India to make deductions from the bills of the Corporation and resultantly coercive recovery from the employees by initiating disciplinary proceedings against them and for filing of the charge-sheets is untenable as it have been issued in total contravention of the judgments, policies, documents and hence, the charge-sheets itself are violative of the statutory provisions of the rules, regulations and policies governing the conditions of service of the petitioner and no evidence has been adduced by the Corporation on which the claims have been vested. He further submits that the matter relating to storage gain in wheat stocks and storage loss in rice stocks is sub-judice before this Court in CWP No.27725 of 2013, titled as "Punjab State Warehousing Corporation Field Employees Union vs Union of India and others", along with bunch of petitions, which is pending for 24.05.2024.
