ORDER
Per: Justice Anand Pathak
Regard being had to similitude of the dispute, all the writ appeals are being
heard analogously and decided by this common judgment. For factual clarity,
facts of Writ Appeal No.1765/2025 are taken into consideration.
2. The present writ appeal preferred under Section 2 of the Madhya Pradesh
Uccha Nyayalaya (Khand Nyaypeeth Ko Appeal) Adhiniyam, 2005 by
appellant/State against the orders dated 25.10.2023, passed in Writ Petition
No.9356/2022, whereby petition preferred by appellant (petitioner therein) stands
disposed of with certain directions.
3. At the outset, learned counsel for the respondent/employee placed before
this Court an order dated 23.07.2025 passed in W.A. No.1657/2025 (The State of
M.P. and Ors vs. Ramrao Bhimte) and seeks parity. According to him the case in
hand is akin to the case of Ramrao Bhimte (supra) which was discussed by
Division Bench of this Court (Principal Seat Jabalpur) and after discussion appeal
preferred by appellant/State got dismissed. Learned Division Bench considered
the import of judgment rendered by Apex Court in the case of S.H. Baig and Ors.
vs. State of M.P. and Ors reported in 2018 (10) SCC 621 , State of Punjab and Ors
vs. Rafiq Masih (White Washer), reported in 2015 (4) SCC 334 and judgment of
NEUTRAL CITATION NO. 2025:MPHC-GWL:16549
7 WA-1765-2025
Supreme Court in the matter of Anita Chaudhary and Ors. vs. State of M.P. (Civil
Appeal No.9927/2018), whereby case of recovery against employee got quashed.
4. Counsel for the appellant/State could not dispute the passing of such
order and fairly submit that controversy is no longer res-integra.
5. After going through the judgment, it appears that no further discussion is
required. Resultantly, all the writ appeals preferred by appellant/State are hereby
dismissed and the orders passed by learned Writ Court are hereby affirmed.
