Mishra vs. State of Madhya Pradesh and others, reported in 2010 (2) SCC
169, to contend that before passing the order of termination, the respondent
did not conduct an enquiry. In that case before the Supreme Court, the
appellant therein was appointed as a Peon on 24.07.1980. After eight years
of his service, on 22.08.1989, the appellant therein was charge sheeted in a
criminal case for the offences under Sections 148, 342/149, 326/149 and
506 of IPC. In the year 1994, the appellant/writ petitioner was called upon
to submit an attestation form by his employer by furnishing certain personal
details. In column No.12 of the form, he was called upon to state as to
whether he was arrested, prosecuted or kept under detention by any Court
for which he answered "No". However, on 14.07.1995, the Deputy Inspector
General (Special Cell) Bhopal, submitted a report stating that the appellant
therein involved himself in the criminal case. Based on such report, no
action was taken thereof by the employer and the appellant therein was
allowed to continue in the post till 07.03.2002. While so, on 07.03.2002,
without conducting any enquiry, an Office order was issued terminating the
appellant therein from service. Further, after such termination, the appellant
therein was acquitted from the criminal case on 09.09.2004. It is in those

circumstances, the Supreme Court held that terminating the appellant/writ
petitioner without conducting any enquiry, is bad. In the present case, the
question of conducting an enquiry will not arise, inasmuch as the
appellant/writ petitioner herself admitted that she did not possess the
requisite qualification for holding the post of Graduate Assistant
(Mathematics) even at the time of conducting the interview. All that the
appellant/writ petitioner stated in her explanation is that she was called
upon to fill up the ICR Form by indicating the post for which the call letter
was issued to her. Thus, even at the time of selection process, the
appellant/writ petitioner knew fully well about her demeanour in continuing
in the selection process for the sake of securing employment. In such view
of the matter, after six years of her service, finding that the appointment of
the appellant/writ petitioner itself is irregular, the order dated 30.06.2013
came to be passed. The learned Single Judge, while upholding the order
dated 30.06.2013, rightly issued direction to take appropriate action as is
necessary against the erring officials for having appointed the appellant/writ
petitioner in a post to which she is not qualified. We find no error or
infirmity in the order passed by the learned Single Judge.
