DATED : 22nd DECEMBER 2016.
ORAL JUDGMENT : (Per V.K.TAHILRAMANI J.)
1 Heard both sides.
2 Rule. Rule is made returnable forthwith and the
matter is heard finally.
3 The petitioner preferred an application for furlough
which was granted and he was released on furlough from
02/09/2015 to 15/09/2015. The petitioner preferred an
application for extension of furlough on 07/09/2015 on the
Gaikwad RD 1/2
(11)WPNo.7902016(2)
ground of illness of his wife. Extension was sought for a
period of 14 days I.e.. from 16/09/2015 to 29/09/2015. The
said application for extension of furlough was rejected, hence
this petition.
4 For seeking extension of furlough, petitioner is
relying on a medical certificate issued by Shripad Hospital,
Khopoli, District Raigad. The medical certificate is without any
date. Moreover, the medical certificate shows that wife of the
petitioner is suffering from 'pyxeria'. Medical dictionary states
that 'pyrexia' means 'fever'.
5 Looking to the fact that the medical certificate is
without any date and looking to the fact that wife of the
petitioner was only suffering from fever, we do not think that
this is a fit case for grant of extension of furlough, hence
prayer of the petitioner is rejected.
6 Rule is discharged.
