6/26.04.2023 This petition has been filed for quashing of the FIR being Doranda
P.S.Case No.37 of 2018, G.R.No.1241 of 2018, pending in the court of
learned Judicial Magistrate-I, Ranchi.
2. The brief facts of the case is that the petitioner is serving as
Labour in Ranchi Municipal Corporation, Doranda Branch, Ranchi. She
was appointed on compassionate ground on death of Mathu Oraon
permanent employee of respondent no.2. The petitioner has got the said
appointment on the forged document. The said matter was complained
by son namely Kuldip Lakra of late Mathu Oraon. On said complaint, a
departmental enquiry was initiated and the petitioner found guilty and
hence she was terminated from the post on 08.01.2017.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is no forged
document and unnecessarily this FIR has been lodged and in that view of
the matter the same may kindly be quashed.
4. The Court has gone through the contents of the FIR and finds that
there is allegation of taking compassionate appointment by way of
producing forged document and for that FIR has been registered. There
appears that prima facie case is made out. There are parameters of
quashing of the FIR as per the judgment rendered by the Hon'ble
Supreme Court in the case of State of Haryana v. Bhajan Lal, reported in
1992 Supp (1) SCC 335. No case of quashing of the FIR is made out.
5. Accordingly, this petition is dismissed.
