HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE P.NAVEEN RAO
WRIT PETITION No.2786 of 2021
ORDER :
Heard learned counsel for petitioner and learned Special
Government Pleader for Home.
2. In the selections conducted pursuant to recruitment
notification issued in the year 2012, petitioner was selected and
appointed as Stipendiary Trainee Constable in the Special Police
Force on 21.01.2013. After successful completion of nine months
induction training, he was appointed as constable and was placed
on probation. While on probation, notice was issued on
04.02.2015 calling upon the petitioner to explain why his
probation should not be terminated on the ground of unauthorized
absence for six days. Though, petitioner submitted his explanation
giving reasons for his absence, not satisfied with the explanation
offered by the petitioner, the Commandant of Special Protection
Force terminated the probation of petitioner by orders dated
10.03.2016. Aggrieved thereby, petitioner preferred the appeal to
the Director General of Police (D.G.P.), Special Protection Force.
The D.G.P. while rejecting the appeal vide his orders dated
04.04.2017 also referred to the subsequent involvement of
petitioner in criminal proceedings.
3. Since D.G.P. referred to pending criminal case, petitioner
waited till the criminal Court pronounces judgment in S.C.No.154
of 2017. By judgment dated 14.05.2018, petitioner was acquitted
in the said case. On 13.03.2019, petitioner submitted
representation to the Principal Secretary to Government, Home
Department requesting to review the decision to terminate his
probation and to reinstate into service. On 09.05.2019, he also
submitted representation to the D.G.P.
4. This writ petition is filed alleging inaction on the
representations submitted by the petitioner.
5. Having regard to the chronology of events noted above,
I deem it proper, in the facts of the case, to dispose of writ petition
at the admission stage. Writ petition is disposed of directing the
Government to consider representation submitted by petitioner on
13.03.2019 requesting to review the decision to terminate the
probation of the petitioner as expeditiously as possible preferably
within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of
the order. Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand
closed.
