K. Veeraswamy Deceased By L.R.K.B. ... vs Commissioner Of Income-Tax, Andhra ... on 10 December, 1959

““Officer subordinate.”— What is the exact purport of the component words of the expression “any officer subordinate” used in the Sec.44-A of the Motor Vehicles Act, 1939. “Any” is a word which excludes limitation or qualification. It connotes wide generality. Its use points to a distributive construction. The word “any” is used in the sense of “any body”, “any person”. The individual who is invested with the authority and is required to perform the duties incidental to an office is an officer. For determining whether officers are subordinate or not the test is not whether a review of such of their determinations as are quasi-judicial may be had, but whether in the performance of their various duties they are subject to the direction and control of a superior officer, or are independent officers subject only to such directions as the statute gives.— B. Veeraswamy v. State of Andhra Pradesh, (1959) Andh. W.R.308 at p.314: A.I.R. 1959 A.P. 413 (F.B.)” (emphasis supplied)
