1 - 10 of 11 (0.51 seconds)Divisional Personnel Officer, Souther ... vs S.Raghavendrachar on 16 December, 1965
4) The learned counsel Sri Sanjay Sharawat appearing for the
appellants, apart from others, submitted, that, the appellants, being
temporary employees working from last 15 to 17 years, were
entitled to Protection Guaranteed under Article 311(2) of the
Constitution of India before being terminated. Reference is made
to the decision of this Court in the case of Parshotam Lal Dhingra
Vs. Union of India (1958) SCR 828; and Divisional Personnel
Officer, Southern Railway, Mysore Vs. S. Raghavendrachar
(1966) 3 SCR 106; since the appellants are governed by the
provisions of Punjab Home Guards Act, 1947 and Punjab Home
Guards and Civil Defence (Field) Class III Rules, 1983, their
services could not have been terminated without issuing Show
Cause Notice and without holding departmental enquiry.
Alternatively, it is contended that the order of termination passed
by the respondents is not only stigmatic but the same has been
passed as a consequence of an alleged misconduct committed by
3
the appellants at the Railway Station, Amritsar on 02.12.2004.
State Of Gujarat And Anr vs Akshay Arutlal Thakkar on 17 January, 2006
(20)Now we take up the second issue. The appellants contend that the
High Court erred in dismissing the writ petition filed by the
appellants relying on the decision of this court in State of Gujarat vs.
Akshay Amrutlal Thakkar (2006) 2 SCC 309. In that case, Akshay
Amrutlal Thakkar was appointed to the honorary post of District
Commandant in the Home Guard and then subsequently the order of
disengagement was passed by the State Govt. vide its order dated
02.12.1995. It is this order which was impugned in the writ petition.
This court sustained the order passed by the State Government
primarily on the ground, that the persons involved therein did not act
in the terms of undertaking given by them. It has also observed, that
the services rendered by those persons was honorary, therefore, no
civil consequences were involved. In our view, the facts of that case
are different from that of the instant case. In that case, Amrutlal
Thakkar was being discharged from a honorary post, his employment
was not being terminated as is being done in the present case.
Therefore, in our opinion, the High Court was not justified in placing
reliance on this decision to unsuit the appellants.

which it decides and not what can logically be deduced from.
