Mysore State Road Transport ... vs Mirja Khasim All Beg & Anr on 1 December, 1976

(12) It is true that the respondent may visit the punishment of discharge or removal from service on a person who has absented himself without leave and without reasonable cause, but this cannot entail automatic removal from service without giving such person reasonable opportunity to show cause why he be not removed. The appellant is entitled to a reasonable opportunity to show cause which includes an opportunity to deny his guilt and establish his innocence which he can do only when he knows what the charges levelled against him are and the allegations on which such charges are based. In our judgment, the appellant was entitled to an opportunity to show cause against the action proposed to be taken against him." So, it appears that the ratio, as decided in all those cases is to the effect that without initiating a departmental proceeding and without giving an opportunity to the concerned employee to give explanation in respect of the alleged misdeed, the service of such employee should not be terminated. There cannot be any dispute in this respect. So, I have got no hesitation to hold that the manner in which the service of the writ petitioner/appellant was terminated appears to be not proper. Since it appears that the order of discharge, so passed by the departmental authority, without initiating any departmental proceeding, appears to be improper, so there cannot be any doubt that such defect could not be cured by the order passed by the appellate authority. The decision reported in AIR 1977 SC 747 (Mysore State Road Transport Corporation vs. Mirja Khasim Ali Bag & Anr.) is very much relevant in this respect. In the said decision the Hon'ble Supreme Court observed as follows:

Panchugopal Barua & Ors vs Umesh Chandra Goswami & Ors on 12 February, 1997

In this respect he has relied upon the decisions reported in AIR 1997 SC 1041 (Panchu Gopal Barua & Ors. vs. Umesh Chandra Goswami & Ors.) and AIR 2000 SC 1165 (United India Insurance Company Limited vs. Rajendra Singh & Ors.). In support of his contention, Mr. Bhattcharjee argued that the writ petitioner practised fraud upon the court by annexing the Annexure P-7, which is at page 37, in order to impress upon the court that actually no discharge order was passed by the appropriate authority. Mr. Bhattacharjee argued that there was no such existence of this document, as filed by the writ petitioner in support of his case. According to him, it is a forged document prepared for the purpose of the writ application. In this respect, he has drawn our attention to the affidavit sworn by the then Chairman-man-Managing Director of the Calcutta Tramways Company, who is at present serving as the Secretary to the Government of West Bengal, wherein it was clearly stated that no such document was issued by him in favour of the writ petitioner nor he signed in the said document, that is annexed as Annexure P-7 to the writ petition. There is no reason whatsoever to disbelieve the statement of the then Chairman-man-Managing Director and it appears that the learned Trial Judge was perfectly justified in holding that the writ petitioner practised fraud upon the court by way of using a document which is not genuine.
