ORDER
26.08.2025
Heard Mr. M. Debbarma, learned Addl. G.A. appearing for the petitioners-State. Also heard Mr. Somik Deb, learned senior counsel assisted by Mr. P.L. Debbarma, learned counsel appearing for the respondent.
It is submitted by Mr. M. Debbarma, learned Addl. G.A. that originally in the writ petition bearing No. WP (C) 634 of 2021, there were three respondents i.e.:
1. The State of Tripura, Represented by the Secretary & Commission to the Department of Finance, Government of Tripura, having his office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub Division- Sadar, District- West Tripura.
2. The Secretary & Commissioner, Department of Finance, Government of Tripura, Having his office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub Division- Sadar, District- West Tripura.
3. The Secretary & Commissioner, Panchayet Department, Government of Tripura, Having its office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub-Division-
Sadar, District- West Tripura.
Thereafter, by order dated 17.02.2022, the writ Court directed for impleading TPSC as respondent No.4 and accordingly, the 4th respondent i.e. TPSC was brought on record. The writ petition was decided on 01.08.2022 and it is seen from the writ order that there is no mentioning of the cause-title. It is not known who are the respondents-parties in the judgment.
Thus, the cause-title in respect of the respondents ought to have been as under:
1. The State of Tripura, Represented by the Secretary & Commission to the Department of Finance, Government of Tripura, having his office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub Division- Sadar, District- West Tripura.
2. The Secretary & Commissioner, Department of Finance, Government of Tripura, Having his office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub Division- Sadar, District- West Tripura.
3. The Secretary & Commissioner, Panchayet Department, Government of Tripura, Having its office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub-Division-
Sadar, District- West Tripura.
4. Tripura Public Service Commission, Government of Tripura, A.K. Road, Agartala, West Tripura PIN-799001.
Aggrieved by the order in WP(C) 634 of 2021, the petitioner filed WA 180 of 2022 and the same was admitted and thereafter disposed of by this Court in its Order dated 06.03.2024. It is seen from the cause-title of the said writ appeal that, the names of the respondents are reflected as:
1. The State of Tripura, Represented by the Secretary & Commission to the Department of Finance, Government of Tripura, having his office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub Division- Sadar, District- West Tripura.
2. The Secretary & Commissioner, Department of Finance, Government of Tripura, Having his office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub Division- Sadar, District- West Tripura.
3. The Secretary & Commissioner, Panchayet Department, Government of Tripura, Having its office at New Secretariat Complex, Gurkhabasti, Agartala, P.O. Kunjaban, P.S. New Capital Complex, Sub-Division-
Sadar, District- West Tripura.
Conspicuously, the respondent No.4 i.e. T.P.S.C is missing. Inadvertently, the said writ appeal has been decided without the TPSC being impleaded as respondent.
Now, in connection with the order of the said writ appeal, the Review petition No.15 of 2025 has been preferred with condone delay petition and the same has been condoned & admitted and now it has come up for hearing.
At the request of Mr. Somik Deb, learned senior counsel appearing for the respondent, the matter is adjourned to 3rd September, 2025.
Learned counsel for the appellant-writ petitioner is directed to bring the TPSC on record by way of an implead petition and also to serve the case papers on TPSC by the next date of hearing.
