JAMMU, May 4: Division Bench of State High Court comprising Justice Ali Mohammad Magrey and Justice Tashi Rabstan has upheld the quashment of premature retirement of Imtiyaz Ahmed Lara, Incharge Assistant Executive Engineer, PMGSY Uri.
DB, while dismissing the appeal of the State, observed, “writ court has taken note of the fact that the petitioner/ respondent has been appreciated by his superiors throughout and his entire service career is unblemished except for him having figured in the case FIR No. 13/2010 registered by the Vigilance Organization Kashmir which resulted in his suspension and subsequent removal from service”.
“The writ court has very reasonably appreciated the legal position on the subject when it has said that the guidelines laid down in this behalf have not been followed by the respondents/ appellants in compulsorily retiring the petitioner/ respondent”, the DB further said.
