Permission to file SLP granted.
Delay condoned.
We have heard learned counsel for the
appellants/petitioners and we have also heard learned
Additional Solicitor General who has been instructed by
officers of the concerned Department.
We have also perused the report of the Vigilance
Committee set up by the Department.
We find from a perusal of the report of the Vigilance
Committee that the entire examination was not necessarily
vitiated but some persons who are suspected of having
used malpractices in the examination of Postal
Assistant/Sorting Assistant in five circles, viz.,
Uttarakhand, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Haryana and Gujarat
have actually been identified. The respondents will
proceed against them in accordance with law but since
they are quite a few in number, a formal show cause
notice is dispensed with. However, they may be
personally called and explained the allegations against
them and given some reasonable time of about a week or
ten days to give their reply to the allegations and then
a final decision may be taken.
Those persons who are not suspected of having
committed any malpractices and who have undergone the
prescribed courses may be reinstated with all
consequential benefits and 50% back wages with liberty to
the respondents to take action against them in case
subsequently it is found in the investigation that they
have indulged in some malpractices.
We make it clear that the respondents are at liberty
to take action against those persons who have violated
the terms of the examination such as having appeared in
more than one centre. Such violations will also be
treated as malpractice.
We further make it clear that this order will not
enure to the benefit of those persons who have not been
given appointment letters. However, we also make it
clear that those candidates who have not completed the
course but were in the process of completing the course
until the impugned action was taken may be permitted to
complete the course/training provided they are not
suspected of any malpractice.
The appeals and special leave petitions stand
disposed of.
Pending applications are also disposed of.
