The petitioner, a constable with BSF, was granted 45 days<br \/>\nearned leave on stated grounds of his mother being ill w.e.f.<br \/>\n14.9.1994 to 28.10.94.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.      Required to rejoin on 29.10.1994, petitioner did not rejoin<br \/>\nduty. A call up letter was sent at his residential permanent<br \/>\naddress on 12.11.1994. Petitioner did not respond.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P. (C) No. 4559\/1997                                Page 1 of 9<\/span><\/p>\n<p> 3.     An Apprehension Roll was issued with a request to the<br \/>\nSuperintendent of Police, District Sonepat, since the petitioner<br \/>\nresided in a village in District Sonepat, to apprehend the<br \/>\npetitioner and hand him over to the nearest battalion Head<br \/>\nQuarter. The Apprehension Roll was returned unexecuted with<br \/>\nthe report that the family members and fellow villagers informed<br \/>\nthe police that the petitioner had left his house to join his unit at<br \/>\nKupwarah, Jammu and Kashmir.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.     A Court of enquiry was ordered which opined that in the<br \/>\nabsence of any communication received from the petitioner, his<br \/>\nabsconding amounted to willful absenting from discharging duties<br \/>\ni.e. unauthorized absence without sufficient cause. Suitable<br \/>\naction was directed to be taken.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.     Since the petitioner had gone missing, the Commandant<br \/>\nopined that it would be not feasible to hold an enquiry and thus, a<br \/>\nshow cause notice was sent to the petitioner at his permanent<br \/>\naddress requiring the petitioner to show cause as to why he<br \/>\nshould not be dismissed from service. Petitioner did not respond<br \/>\nto the show              cause notice and as a result thereof, the<br \/>\nCommandant passed an order terminating the services of the<br \/>\npetitioner on account of unauthorized absence from duty.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.     After he was dismissed from service, petitioner sent a<br \/>\nrepresentation challenging his services being terminated and<br \/>\nalong therewith sent photocopies of certain OPD slips as per<br \/>\nwhich     the     petitioner    had   taken   treatment   for   suspected<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P.

The respondents did not pay heed to the same inasmuch as<br \/>\nthe order terminating the services of the petitioner had already<br \/>\nbeen passed and everything was over.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.     Learned       counsel    for   the   petitioner   urges     that   the<br \/>\nphotocopies of the OPD slips show that the petitioner was being<br \/>\ntreated for Tuberculosis and thus would urge that the petitioner<br \/>\nhad a sufficient cause not to report for duty.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.     We     are    hardly    impressed    with   the   medical    reports,<br \/>\nphotocopy of whereof has been placed before us, for the reason<br \/>\nwe have detected at least 5 cases where people went to the<br \/>\ngovernment hospitals, picked up OPD cards and wrote self<br \/>\nprescriptions thereon. When inquiries were ordered by this Court,<br \/>\nthe hospital concerned categorically stated that the documents<br \/>\nwere forged. That apart, the contrivance in the 3 medical<br \/>\ndocuments can be brought out with reference to the fact that the<br \/>\none obtained from Hindu Charitable Hospital, Sonepat dated<br \/>\n7.11.1994, records that as an outpatient, the petitioner was given<br \/>\ntreatment for PNEUMONITIS from 31.10.1994 to 10.11.1994.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.    As we have already noted hereinabove , a letter was sent to<br \/>\nthe petitioner to join back on 12.11.1994. He did not respond to<br \/>\nthe letter. Apprehension Roll dated 16.1.1995 could not be<br \/>\nexecuted as the petitioner was not found in his house and his<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P. (C) No. 4559\/1997                                      Page 3 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n parents told the police officers that the petitioner had left the<br \/>\nvillage to join the unit.\n<\/p>\n<p>11.    Even the photocopy of the OPD slip at BSF Hospital, Delhi<br \/>\nrelied upon being the OPD slip dated 20.3.1995, simply refers to<br \/>\nthe fact that the petitioner is a suspected case of Tuberculosis.<br \/>\nNo medicine is prescribed therein.\n<\/p>\n<p>12.    We     have       repeatedly   asked   learned   counsel    for   the<br \/>\npetitioner that if we take petitioner&#8217;s statement at its face value,<br \/>\nat best it would prove that the petitioner was taking treatment as<br \/>\nan outpatient. What prevented the petitioner from reporting to<br \/>\nthe unit? No answer.\n<\/p>\n<p>13.    Further, if the petitioner was not in his village and was<br \/>\nstaying somewhere in Delhi, what prevented the petitioner to<br \/>\nreport to the unit and therefrom be referred to the BSF hospital<br \/>\nfor further treatment? No answer.\n<\/p>\n<p>14.    We would highlight that the unit of the petitioner was at<br \/>\nKupwara in the State of Jammu and Kashmir. The year was 1994.<br \/>\nMilitancy was at its peak in the State of Jammu and Kashmir. We<br \/>\nneed to highlight that sitting on the current jurisdiction pertaining<br \/>\nto Para Military Forces, all cases of unauthorized absence being<br \/>\ndealt with by us pertain to jawans who were sent on a hard<br \/>\nposting and in each and every case, the claim is similar i.e.<br \/>\nsickness. In all cases OPD cards are obtained, photocopies are<br \/>\nfiled. As in the instant case, in no case are we finding any<br \/>\ncontemporaneous letter written to the Commandant enclosing<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P.

In each and<br \/>\nevery case, the Apprehension Roll remains unexecuted inasmuch<br \/>\nas the family members told the police that the jawan concerned<br \/>\nhad left the village to report for duty. It is apparent that these<br \/>\npersons were not desirous of performing hard duties. They<br \/>\nabsconded and created fabricated documents to justify their<br \/>\nabsence.\n<\/p>\n<p>15.    We have asked learned counsel for the petitioner that if the<br \/>\npetitioner was indeed a patient of Tuberculosis, where is the<br \/>\nproof that he purchased medicines and consumed the same? We<br \/>\ntake judicial notice of the fact that expensive antibiotics have to<br \/>\nbe taken to combat Tuberculosis. Would it not be the natural<br \/>\nconduct        of    a   government    servant    to   seek      medical<br \/>\nreimbursement? He would.\n<\/p>\n<p>16.    The unanswered questions in this case would be:\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>         i.    Where is the proof of the petitioner taking medicines<br \/>\n               for Tuberculosis?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>        ii.    Why petitioner left his village telling his parents that<br \/>\n               he was joining the unit?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>        iii.   As a patient of Tuberculosis why did the petitioner not<br \/>\n               stay in his village so that he could be given care?<br \/>\n        iv.    Why did petitioner not seek refund of the medical<br \/>\n               expenses from the government?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>        v.     Why did petitioner not send an application seeking<br \/>\n               leave to be extended with proof of his medical<br \/>\n               infirmity?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>17.    All the unanswered questions coupled with the other facts<br \/>\nnoted hereinabove, compel us to hold against the petitioner.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P.

It is urged that the impugned<br \/>\naction could not be taken under Section 11(2) of the BSF Act read<br \/>\nwith Rule 177 of the BSF Rules. It is urged that the inquiry could<br \/>\nnot be dispensed with. Similar question was raised and was<br \/>\nanswered by a Division Bench of this Court in the judgment and<br \/>\norder     dated      21.3.2006   dismissing   W.P.(C)   No.6577\/2002,<br \/>\nEx.Ct.Akhilesh Kumar Vs. D.G. BSF &amp; Ors. wherein it was opined<br \/>\nas under:-\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>        &#8220;Being aggrieved of the aforesaid action this writ<br \/>\n        petition is filed on which we have heard the learned<br \/>\n        counsel appearing for the parties. Counsel for the<br \/>\n        petitioner has submitted before us that the petitioner<br \/>\n        was on leave and he was receiving medical treatment<br \/>\n        for a head injury. On going through the record we find<br \/>\n        that the petitioner had undergone surgery for<br \/>\n        Arachanoid Cyst Temporal Lobe. However after the said<br \/>\n        period the petitioner joined 30 Bn. BSF on 27 th October,<br \/>\n        1995. The petitioner for the said period i.e. from 1st<br \/>\n        June, 2000 to 16th July, 2000 was found to be roaming<br \/>\n        here and there as stated by his own father. It is also<br \/>\n        indicated from the said report submitted by the police<br \/>\n        that the petitioner was not interested to rejoin duties.<br \/>\n        The petitioner belongs to a disciplined force and<br \/>\n        therefore it was incumbent upon him to inform the<br \/>\n        respondents regarding his absence even if there was<br \/>\n        any difficulty for the petitioner to rejoin the duties. He<br \/>\n        ignored all notices issued to him by the respondents<br \/>\n        directing him to rejoin his duties. Having no other<br \/>\n        alternative, action has been taken against the<br \/>\n        petitioner in accordance with the provision of Section<br \/>\n        11 of the BSF Act. Under similar circumstances actions<br \/>\n        taken by the respondents exercising power under the<br \/>\n        same provision of law have been upheld. In that regard<br \/>\n        our attention is drawn to a Division Bench decision of<br \/>\n        this Court in Ex.Ct.Raj Kishan v. Union of India and<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P. (C) No. 4559\/1997                                  Page 6 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n        Others &#8211; CWP No.7665\/2001, disposed of on 4th<br \/>\n       September, 2002. In the said decision also a similar<br \/>\n       issue came up for consideration before this Court. It<br \/>\n       was held in the said decision that since the show cause<br \/>\n       notice issued to the petitioner was in accordance with<br \/>\n       law and incorporated the opinion of the Commandant<br \/>\n       that retention of the petitioner inservice was<br \/>\n       undesirable and since his trial by security force court<br \/>\n       was held to be inexpedient and impracticable and<br \/>\n       therefore there is no illegality or irregularity in passing<br \/>\n       the impugned order. Similar is the situation in the<br \/>\n       present case also. Competent authority in the show<br \/>\n       cause notice recorded that retention of the petitioner in<br \/>\n       service was undesirable and his trial by security force<br \/>\n       court was inexpedient and impracticable. Cases of<br \/>\n       Gauranga Chakraborty v.State of Tripura reported in<br \/>\n       (1989) 3 SCC 314 and <a href=\"\/doc\/924039\/\">Union of India v. Ram Pal<\/a><br \/>\n       reported in 1996 (2) SLR 297 were also referred to<br \/>\n       wherein it was held that the power exercised by a<br \/>\n       Commandant under Section 11(2) read with Rule 177<br \/>\n       was an independent power which had nothing to do<br \/>\n       with the power exercisable by a security force court<br \/>\n       and once show cause notice was issued in terms<br \/>\n       thereof, no further inquiry was required to be held if the<br \/>\n       delinquent person failed to reply to the notice and to<br \/>\n       deny the allegations in the process.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       Our attention is also drawn by the counsel appearing for<br \/>\n       the petitioner to a medical certificate dated 4th<br \/>\n       February, 2001 which is placed on record in support of<br \/>\n       his contention that the petitioner was indisposed during<br \/>\n       the entire period during which he was allegedly absent<br \/>\n       unauthorisedly. The said medical certificate is issued by<br \/>\n       CMO, Fategarh. On going through the said medical<br \/>\n       certificate we find that he was advised rest for the<br \/>\n       period from 12th July 2000 to 4th February 2001 which<br \/>\n       is the period during which he was unauthorisedly<br \/>\n       absent. The said certificate does not state that the<br \/>\n       petitioner had undergone any surgery in the said<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P. (C) No. 4559\/1997                                  Page 7 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n        hospital of the CMO Fategarh. It was only a certificate<br \/>\n       stating that he was suffering from post operative<br \/>\n       arachanoid cyst with eplileptic seizure and advised rest<br \/>\n       for the aforesaid period. The said operation as already<br \/>\n       indicated was done in the year 1992 and we do not find<br \/>\n       any reason given in the said certificate for advising rest<br \/>\n       to the petitioner for such a long period. Except for that<br \/>\n       medical certificate no other contemporaneous record is<br \/>\n       placed on record to show that he was ever admitted to<br \/>\n       any hospital nor any document is placed on record to<br \/>\n       show and indicate that he was purchasing medicines or<br \/>\n       he was even examined as an out door patient around<br \/>\n       the same time. We have already referred to the report<br \/>\n       of the police from which it is indicated that the<br \/>\n       petitioner was not in the hospital for the father of the<br \/>\n       petitioner would have definitely given such a statement<br \/>\n       to the police if it would have been so. Therefore the<br \/>\n       aforesaid medical certificate does not inspire confidence<br \/>\n       and cannot at all be relied upon.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       Considering the facts and circumstances of this case we<br \/>\n       are of the considered opinion that ratio of the aforesaid<br \/>\n       decisions of this Court as also of the Supreme Court are<br \/>\n       squarely applicable to the facts and circumstances of<br \/>\n       this case as in the present case also the independent<br \/>\n       power vested in the Commandant under Section 11(2)<br \/>\n       read with Rule 177 was exercised after issuing show<br \/>\n       cause notice to the petitioner in terms thereof.<br \/>\n       Therefore we hold that no further inquiry was required<br \/>\n       to be held in view of the fact that the petitioner has<br \/>\n       failed to file any reply to the show cause notice and to<br \/>\n       deny the allegation in the process.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>       In a recent decision of the Supreme Court in <a href=\"\/doc\/1852945\/\">State of<br \/>\n       Rajasthan and Another v. Mohammed Ayub Naz<\/a><br \/>\n       reported in 2006 I AD (SC) 308 the Supreme Court after<br \/>\n       referring to many other precedences has held that<br \/>\n       absenteeism from office for prolong period of time<br \/>\n       without prior permission by the Government servant has<br \/>\n       become a principal cause of indiscipline which have<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">W.P.

It is also<br \/>\n       held that in order to mitigate the rampant absenteeism<br \/>\n       and wilful absence from service without intimation to<br \/>\n       the Government the Government has promulgated          a<br \/>\n       rule that if the government servant remains willfully<br \/>\n       absent for a period exceeding one month and if the<br \/>\n       charge of willful absence from duty is proved against<br \/>\n       him, he may be removed from service. The Supreme<br \/>\n       Court held that the order of removal from service<br \/>\n       passed in the said case was the only proper punishment<br \/>\n       to be awarded in view of the fact that Government<br \/>\n       servant was absent from duty for long period without<br \/>\n       intimation to the Government. Ram Pal (supra) is also a<br \/>\n       case where action was taken by the respondents under<br \/>\n       the provisions of Section 11(2). In the said decision it<br \/>\n       was held that once a show cause notice is issued<br \/>\n       recording tentative opinion as required, nothing further<br \/>\n       was required to be done in the said case as the<br \/>\n       employee did not reply to the notice. Therefore it was<br \/>\n       held that as there was no denial of the allegation nor<br \/>\n       was there any request for holding an inquiry, therefore<br \/>\n       the action taken is justified.&#8221;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>19.
