[rti4empowerment] Let us not give away- Contempt notice issued

 

Something to share with my friends.
 
In a Contempt Petition filed by me in Hon'ble Central Administrative Tribunal, Lucknow, notice has been issued against Sri Kunwar Fateh Bahadur and Sri Manjeet Singh, previous and present Principal Secretary (Home) in UP government. I had filed a contempt petition No 42/2011 in December 2011. This contempt was filed as regards an order of Hon'ble CAT, Lucknow in case No 177/2010. In its order Hon'ble CAT, through its order dated 08 August 2011 had quashed a pending disciplinary enquiry against me as being against Rule 24 prescribed in All India Services (Discipline and Appeal) Rules 1968.
 
With this there was no departmental enquiry pending against me. As per the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India dated 15/01/1999, an officer against whom there is no disciplinary enquiry pending shall be promoted as per his service records.  A Departmental Promotional Committee meeting was held on 22 December 2011 in which IPS officers till 1996 batch were promoted.
 
On the basis of not being promoted, the contempt of Hon'ble CAT was pleaded. On the basis of the facts presented before the Hon'ble CAT, it has issued contempt notice against these two officials and has fixed 09 April 2012 as the next date of hearing.
 
I thought I must share it with my friends as an instance of how I have kept pursuing a matter in a legal manner to the best of my abilities. A humble request to all my friends is that this shall be taken as an example by all to keep pursuing a genuine case against all odds.
