Shri Parag Kotecha\n\n^     Shri  U.  N. S. Deo\n\n     Hon'ble Shri Satish K. Agnihotri, J\n\n Dated:28\/02\/2008 \n\n: Judgment \n\n                          O R D E R\n<\/pre>\n
         (Passed on this 28th day of February, 2008)<\/p>\n
  1.   The present petition filed under Article 226\/227 of the<\/p>\n
       Constitution of India impugns the order dated 2.9.2006<\/p>\n
       (Annexure P\/6) passed by the respondent No.4 – Sarpanch,<\/p>\n
       Gram Panchayat, Jamri, whereby the petitioner has been<\/p>\n
       terminated from the post of (Secretary) Panchayat Karmi of<\/p>\n
       the Gram Panchayat Jamri, Block – Dongargarh, District –\n<\/p>\n
       Rajnandgaona.\n<\/p>\n
2.   The indisputable facts are that the petitioner was
\nappointed as Panchayat Karmi (Secretary) by order dated
\n16.1.1999 (Annexure P\/1).  The Collector, Rajnandgaon sent a
\ncommunication dated 28.10.2005 (Annexure P\/4) to the Chief
\nExecutive Officer, Janpad Panchayat, Dongargarh, stating
\nthat in the light of the report dated 13.10.2005 it is
\nestablished that the petitioner had collected money for
\nconstruction of dry-latrine from 21 families living below
\nthe poverty line and misappropriated the same. It was
\ndirected to lodge F.I.R. against the petitioner and take
\nnecessary action for his removal from the post of Secretary.\n<\/p>\n
3.   Thereafter, the petitioner received a show cause notice
\ndated 24.2.2006 (Annexure P\/2), issued by the respondent
\nNo.2, stating therein that in a preliminary enquiry the
\nallegations of financial irregularities and misbehaviour
\nwith the panchayat office bearers and villagers have been
\nfound proved. The petitioner was called upon to submit his
\nreply within a period of three days asto why the appointment
\nof the petitioner under Section 69(1) of the Chhattisgarh
\nPanchayat Raj Adhiniyam, 1993, on the post of Secretary be
\nnot cancelled.\n<\/p>\n
4.   In compliance of the above show cause notice dated
\n24.2.2006 the petitioner submitted his reply dated 7.3.2006
\n(Annexure P\/3), denying the allegations levelled against
\nhim.\n<\/p>\n
5.   In response to the memo dated 14.5.2006 issued by the
\nJanpad Panchayat, Dongargarh and memo dated 29.4.2006 issued
\nby the Social Welfare Department, Rajnandgaon, a meeting of
\nthe village Panchayat as well as Gram Sabha was convened on
\n1.6.2006 and the resolution (Annexure P\/5) was passed to
\nremove the petitioner from the post of Panchayat Karmi and
\nPanchayat Secretary. Consequent thereupon, the impugned
\norder dated 2.9.2006 (Annexure P\/6) was passed by the
\nrespondent No.4 – Sarpanch, Gram Panchayat, Jamri, removing
\nthe petitioner from the post of (Secretary) Panchayat Karmi.\n<\/p>\n
6.   Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would
\nsubmit that the petitioner was not informed about any kind
\nof complaints received against him, before issuing the show
\ncause notice dated 24.2.2006 (Annexure P\/2) and the alleged
\nenquiry conducted by the Chief Executive Officer. Likewise,
\nthe petitioner was not aware about the allegation of
\ncollection and misappropriation of money from 21 families
\nand the alleged enquiry report dated 13.10.2005, as is
\nmentioned in the communication dated 28.10.2005 (Annexure
\nP\/4). The serious allegations were found proved in an
\nenquiry, in absence of the petitioner. The petitioner was
\nnot afforded any opportunity of hearing to put forward his
\ncase before report was submitted and thereafter before
\naction was taken on the report. Granting three days time,
\nwhen it was decided to remove the petitioner from the post
\nof Secretary, was not sufficient and reasonable to put
\nforward his case on each and every allegation, which had
\nalready been fond proved before notice dated 24.2.2006
\n(Annexure P\/2) was issued by the respondent No.2.\n<\/p>\n
7.   Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would
\nfurther submit that Rule 7 of the Chhattisgarh Panchayat
\nService (Discipline and Appeal) Rules, 1999   (for short
\n`the Rules, 1999′) provides for procedure before terminating
\nservice of a member of the Panchayat. In the instant case,
\nthe said provisions were not followed, no definite charges
\nwere framed and the petitioner was not served with the
\narticles of charges before holding an enquiry leading to
\ntermination of the petitioner from his services.\n<\/p>\n
8.   Learned counsel would further submit that the
\ntermination order was passed on the basis of the allegation
\nthat the petitioner had committed irregularities and
\nmisbehaviour in performance of his duties. The order is
\nstigmatic and removal from service comes within the purview
\nof major penalty, the same could not have been passed
\nwithout following the procedure as laid down in  the
\nprovisions of law, as prescribed in Rule 7 of the Rules
\n1999.\n<\/p>\n
9.   Despite service of notice, the respondent No. 3 Chief
\nExecutive Officer, Janpad Panchayat, Dongargarh and the
\nrespondent No.4 Sarpanch, Gram Panchayat Jamri, Block
\nDongargarh, have chosen not to appear in the proceeding.\n<\/p>\n
10.  Shri U. N. S. Deo, learned counsel appearing for the
\nrespondents No. 1, 2 and 5 would categorically submit that
\non perusal of the papers it is evident that the procedure
\nprescribed in Rule 7 of the Rules, 1999 have not been
\nfollowed. The petitioner was appointed on 16.1.1999 and
\nwithout following the due process of law, the petitioner has
\nbeen removed on 2.9.2006 on the basis of the resolution
\npassed by the concerned Gram Panchayat and Gram Sabha, which
\nis not sustainable in law.\n<\/p>\n
11.  Admittedly, the Gram Panchayat, before passing the
\nimpugned termination order has not complied with the
\nprovisions of Rule 7 of the Rules, 1999. This Court in
\nDhaluram Kosaria Vs. State of C.G. & others1, Beegan Ram Vs.
\nState of C.G. & others2 and Prakash Chand Soni Vs. State of
\nC.G. & othrs3 has held that the non compliance of the
\nstatutory provisions and denial of principles of natural
\njustice tantamounts to infraction of not only the provisions
\nof Rule 7 of the Rules, 1999 but the provisions of Article
\n311 (2) of the Constitution of India also. The order of
\nremoval being penal in nature, visiting with civil (evil)
\nconsequences, cannot be passed without holding the enquiry
\nin accordance with the elaborate provisions, as prescribed
\nin Rule 7 of the Rules,1999.\n<\/p>\n
12.  It is thus clear that the respondents have not followed
\nthe statutory provisions of law before passing the impugned
\norder.\n<\/p>\n
13.  On the question of back wages, no foundation has been
\nlaid to establish the fact that whether the petitioner was
\ngainfully employed elsewhere or not during this period. Even
\notherwise, keeping in view that the termination order has
\nbeen vitiated not on merit but on account of non-compliance
\nof the statutory provisions before terminating the services
\nof the petitioner, 30% back wages would be sufficient in the
\ninterest of justice.\n<\/p>\n
14.  In view of the foregoing, the petition is allowed. The
\nimpugned order dated 2.9.2006 (Annexure P\/6) is quashed. No
\ncosts.\n<\/p>\n
