As per the order in the Writ Petition, the order passed<\/p>\n<p>by the Manager was quashed.                  It was held that when the<\/p>\n<p>Assistant Educational Officer passes an order under Sub Rule 8<\/p>\n<p>of Rule 67 of Chapter XIV A of the Kerala Education Rules, the<\/p>\n<p>Manager would have no jurisdiction to exercise his power of<\/p>\n<p>suspension under Rule 67(1) of Chapter XIV A or under Section<\/p>\n<p>12(2) of the Kerala Education Act. It was also held that &#8220;the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner would be entitled to all the consequential benefits<\/p>\n<p>including arrears of salary and continuity in service&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>      3.   In spite of the judgment and in spite of the fact that<\/p>\n<p>the judgment was confirmed in Writ Appeal No.2180 of 2008, the<\/p>\n<p>Manager issued Annexure 7 order dated 23rd December 2008,<\/p>\n<p>the operative portion of which reads as follows:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>           &#8220;In the above circumstances, by virtue of the<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">COC 22 of 2009                    2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>            powers vested in me as the Corporate Manager of<br \/>\n            all CSI Schools, after considering various aspects<br \/>\n            in totality, in the interest of justice and in the<br \/>\n            interest of education, I am imposing the following<br \/>\n            minor punishments to Smt.J.Valsala under the<br \/>\n            provisions of Rule 76 of Chapter XIV A of KER<br \/>\n            1959.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>             (a) To     withheld   two   increments     without<br \/>\n                 cumulative effect for a period of one year<br \/>\n                 effective from 18.12.2007(F.N.).\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>             (b) To treat the suspension period with effect<br \/>\n                 from      18.12.2007    (F.N.)     until   the<br \/>\n                 reinstatement on 5.6.2008 (F.N.) as `Leave<br \/>\n                 Without Allowances&#8217; and to convert the<br \/>\n                 temporary     reinstatement     into   regular<br \/>\n                 reinstatement effective from 5.6.2008.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>     4.     Annexure 7 is justified by the Manager saying that his<\/p>\n<p>power to take disciplinary proceedings is not affected by the<\/p>\n<p>judgment in the Writ Petition and it is so made clear in the<\/p>\n<p>judgment in the Writ Appeal. However, clause (b) of Annexure 7<\/p>\n<p>as quoted above is clearly in violation of the judgment. Probably<\/p>\n<p>realising this and realising the fact that there is no escape from<\/p>\n<p>the proceedings in contempt, the Manager, as a last resort,<\/p>\n<p>withdrew from his earlier stand and issued Annexure R1(a) dated<\/p>\n<p>5.3.2009 deleting clause (b) from          the last paragraph of<\/p>\n<p>Annexure 7. What remains is clause (a) of Annexure 7 which is<\/p>\n<p>unconnected with the prayer in the Writ Petition. Therefore, it<\/p>\n<p>cannot be said that the contempt case has to be proceeded with<\/p>\n<p>against the Manager, though technically speaking, Annexure 7<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">COC 22 of 2009                  3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>was issued in violation of the directions in the judgment in the<\/p>\n<p>Writ Petition. The Manager has tendered apology for the same.<\/p>\n<p>     5.     As regards the Headmaster, he takes the view that he<\/p>\n<p>need not obey the orders of the court, but he need only obey the<\/p>\n<p>Manager. The Manager has now realised the mistake and has<\/p>\n<p>withdrawn from his earlier stand. But, the Headmaster does not<\/p>\n<p>know whether he should do so. Naturally, he will also follow the<\/p>\n<p>Manager as he has expressed his view earlier. The Headmaster<\/p>\n<p>has also tendered unconditional apology.\n<\/p>\n<p>       I do not think it is necessary to proceed with the case.<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, the Contempt Case is closed without prejudice to<\/p>\n<p>the right of the petitioner to challenge Annexure 7 order. It is<\/p>\n<p>made clear that the disposal of this Contempt Case would not be<\/p>\n<p>taken as an approval of the order withholding of increments.<\/p>\n<p>The Contempt Case is closed only since the barring of<\/p>\n<p>increments was not within the scope of the Writ Petition.<\/p>\n<p>            The Contempt Case is disposed of as above.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                            K.T.SANKARAN,<br \/>\n                                                  JUDGE<br \/>\ncsl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kerala High Court J.Valsala vs Rev.
