                                        Review Application is filed under Order 47 Rule 1 & 2 read
                      with Section 114 of the Code of Civil Procedure to review the Order in Writ
                      Appeal (MD).No.860 of 2018, dated 01.08.2024.


                                        For Petitioner         :        M/s.Isaac Chambers



                                                                   ORDER

This review application is filed to review the Judgment passed in

Writ Appeal (MD).No.860 of 2018 dated 01.08.2024.

2. This review application is filed on the ground that the order passed

in W.P.(MD).No.2035 of 2016 was not placed before this Court at the time

of arguments in W.A.(MD).No.860 of 2018.

3.The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that there was a

Writ Petition filed against the appellant seeking issuance of writ of Quo

Warranto, filed by one M.Ananthakrishnan, challenging his selection for the

post as an Associate Professor. In the order passed in W.P.(MD)No.2035 of

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 28/03/2025 12:59:18 pm )

2016, specific finding given by a learned Single Judge that he was having

full qualification, eligible to be appointed based on his Experience

Certificate issued by the Competent Authorities.

4. This Court in the order dated 01.08.2019, (which sought to be

reviewed in this application) has already recorded the finding that appellant

herein was selected based on his qualification and elaborately discussed

about eligibility and issued direction that the petitioner has to undergo

Departmental Disciplinary Proceedings.

5. Since the challenge made in the present proceeding, concerning the

Show Cause Notice, this Court passed the order dated 01.08.2019. The

order passed in Writ of Quo Warranto proceedings is in no way of help to

the petitioner, since, we have specifically held that the petitioner has to give

reply to the Show Cause Notice and the petitioner is not entitled to

challenge the Show Cause Notice. It is also observed that he is entitled to

present his case before the Departmental Proceedings. The scope of Review

is very limited and this Court has already considered the submissions of the

https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis ( Uploaded on: 28/03/2025 12:59:18 pm )

petitioner, and no ground is made out to review the order passed by this

Court. Hence, we are not inclined to entertain this review application and

the same is hereby dismissed.

6. Accordingly, this Review Application is dismissed. Consequently,

the connected miscellaneous petition stands closed.

                                                                                 (A.D.J.C., J.)      (K.R.S., J.)
