Yes\n3.   Whether the judgment should be reported in the \u201eDigest\u201f? Yes\n\n\nREKHA SHARMA, J.\n<\/pre>\n<p>     The appellant Kapur Singh was working as Naik in Central<\/p>\n<p>Industrial Security Force. On August 10,1984 he was placed under<\/p>\n<p>suspension under Rule 29-A read with Schedule II of Central Industrial<\/p>\n<p>Security Force (CISF) Rules, 1969 on the allegation that he had<\/p>\n<p>committed theft of one Harrison lock, one back view mirror and one<\/p>\n<p>pair of white gloves from a car while on duty at the road accident site<\/p>\n<p>on August 8,1984. Consequent to his suspension departmental enquiry<\/p>\n<p>was conducted against him and vide order dated February 15,1985 he<\/p>\n<p>was inflicted the punishment of reversion to the lower post of<\/p>\n<p>Constable for a period of two years and was to be restored to the post<\/p>\n<p>of Naik only if found fit. The appellant preferred appeal against the<\/p>\n<p>order of punishment to the Deputy Inspector General, CISF but the<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 199\/07                                          Page 1 of 5<\/span><br \/>\n same was rejected vide order dated May 18,1985. Aggrieved by the<\/p>\n<p>order of reversion and rejection of his appeal the appellant filed a suit<\/p>\n<p>in the court of Civil Judge, Delhi seeking decree of declaration to the<\/p>\n<p>effect that the order of punishment      dated February 15, 1985      be<\/p>\n<p>declared illegal, invalid and inoperative and a further declaration that<\/p>\n<p>he became entitled to be restored to the post of Naik soon after<\/p>\n<p>February 15,1987. The appellant also claimed the relief that the<\/p>\n<p>adverse remarks conveyed to him vide memorandum dated February<\/p>\n<p>19, 1985, March 19,1987, May 9,1989 and June 21,1989 be declared<\/p>\n<p>illegal and invalid. The Learned Civil Judge dismissed the suit on the<\/p>\n<p>ground that in so far as the prayers seeking declaration with regard to<\/p>\n<p>the reversion and recording of remarks dated February 19, 1985 and<\/p>\n<p>March 19,1987 were concerned the same were barred by time. The<\/p>\n<p>Civil Judge also found no irregularity in the enquiry conducted against<\/p>\n<p>the appellant or any malafides on the part of the authorities in<\/p>\n<p>inflicting the punishment of reversion on the appellant or in the<\/p>\n<p>recording of the adverse remarks. The Judgment of the Civil Judge was<\/p>\n<p>challenged in appeal by the appellant before the Additional District<\/p>\n<p>Judge who concurred with the findings of the Civil Judge and<\/p>\n<p>accordingly vide order dated April 30,2007 dismissed the appeal. The<\/p>\n<p>present   appeal has been preferred assailing the judgment of the<\/p>\n<p>Additional District Judge.\n<\/p>\n<p>      As noticed above, the relief sought by the appellant before the<\/p>\n<p>Civil Judge was that the order of reversion dated February 15,1985<\/p>\n<p>which was upheld by the appellate authority on May 18,1985 was bad<\/p>\n<p>and inoperative. The appellant also sought relief that the adverse<\/p>\n<p>remarks conveyed to him vide memorandum dated February 19, 1985,<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 199\/07                                          Page 2 of 5<\/span><br \/>\n March 19,1987, May 9,1989 and June 21,1989 be declared illegal and<\/p>\n<p>invalid. It is not disputed that the period of limitation for filing a suit of<\/p>\n<p>declaration and injunction is three years from the date of accrual of the<\/p>\n<p>cause of action. The appellant had filed the suit on July 16,1990. There<\/p>\n<p>can be no doubt that reckoned from the date of order of reversion<\/p>\n<p>dated February 15,1985 and the order of the appellant authority<\/p>\n<p>confirming the said order on May 18,1985, the suit which was filed on<\/p>\n<p>July 16,1990 was clearly barred by time. The Civil Judge was thus<\/p>\n<p>justified in holding that the suit was barred by time vis-\u00e0-vis the above<\/p>\n<p>reliefs. The learned Additional District Judge rightly did not interfere<\/p>\n<p>with the findings of the Civil Judge. The learned Civil Judge had also<\/p>\n<p>dealt with the merits of the case and found no irregularity in the<\/p>\n<p>enquiry conducted against him. The learned Additional District Judge<\/p>\n<p>agreed with the finding of the Civil Judge. I find no reason to interfere<\/p>\n<p>with the concurrent findings of the courts below.\n<\/p>\n<p>      It is well settled that the Courts and Tribunals do not sit in appeal<\/p>\n<p>against the findings of the Inquiry Officer and cannot substitute their<\/p>\n<p>own views in place of the Disciplinary Authority. The Courts will not<\/p>\n<p>weigh the merits and demerits of rival versions. If on the evidence on<\/p>\n<p>record, the view taken is plausible then that would be the end of the<\/p>\n<p>matter as far as the challenge to the finding recorded by Inquiry Officer<\/p>\n<p>is concerned. Plausibility of the other view is no ground for judicial<\/p>\n<p>interference to upset the findings of the Inquiry Officer. The Apex Court<\/p>\n<p>in the case of Director General, RPF &amp; Others Vs. Ch. Sai Babu<\/p>\n<p>reported in (2003) 4 SCC 331 has laid down the parameters within<\/p>\n<p>which the Courts can interfere in matters of departmental inquiry and<\/p>\n<p>has held as under:-\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 199\/07                                              Page 3 of 5<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>         &#8220;Normally, the punishment imposed by a Disciplinary Authority<\/p>\n<p>should not be disturbed by the High Court or a Tribunal except in<\/p>\n<p>appropriate cases that too only after reaching a conclusion that the<\/p>\n<p>punishment imposed is grossly or shockingly disproportionate after<\/p>\n<p>examining all the relevant facts including the nature of charges proved<\/p>\n<p>against the past conduct, penalty imposed earlier, the nature of duties<\/p>\n<p>assigned having due regard to their sensitiveness, exactness expected<\/p>\n<p>of and discipline required to be maintained and the department<\/p>\n<p>\/establishment in which the delinquent person concerned works&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>        Similarly in relation to the recording of adverse remarks, it has<\/p>\n<p>been held by the Apex Court in the case of Badrinath Vs. Government<\/p>\n<p>of Tamil Nadu &amp; Ors. 2000 (6) Scale 618 that the Courts and Tribunals<\/p>\n<p>cannot sit as Appellate Authorities nor substitute their own views to the<\/p>\n<p>views    of   the   Departmental   Promotion   Committees.     Therefore,<\/p>\n<p>challenge by the appellant to the recording of adverse remarks also<\/p>\n<p>cannot be sustained. The learned Additional District Judge in the<\/p>\n<p>impugned judgment has held that the evidence led by the appellant<\/p>\n<p>before the learned Trial Court shows that the principles of natural<\/p>\n<p>justice were followed in conducting the enquiry by the Disciplinary<\/p>\n<p>Authority. The appellant was given sufficient opportunities. He filed<\/p>\n<p>appeals and revisions which were rejected. His case was considered by<\/p>\n<p>all the Departmental Promotion Committee after the period of two<\/p>\n<p>years from the said punishment order dated February 15,1985 but did<\/p>\n<p>not find him fit.\n<\/p>\n<p>        Having regard to the judgment of the Civil Judge and of the<\/p>\n<p>Additional District Judge giving detailed reasons for not accepting the<\/p>\n<p>suit and the appeal respectively, I find no ground to interfere in the<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 199\/07                                           Page 4 of 5<\/span><br \/>\n same. The appellant has failed to raise any question of law much less<\/p>\n<p>substantial question of law which may require consideration by this<\/p>\n<p>court.\n<\/p>\n<p>         The appeal is dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                             REKHA SHARMA, J.\n<\/p>\n<p>AUGUST 29, 2008<br \/>\ng<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA 199\/07                                        Page 5 of 5<\/span>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi High Court Kapur Singh vs Central Industrial Security &#8230; on 29 August, 2008 Author: Rekha Sharma * IN THE HIGH COURT OF DELHI AT NEW DELHI RSA No. 199 of 2007 Date of Decision : 29-08-2008 Kapur Singh &#8230;..
