Deadline extended for Assistant Registrar in disciplinary matter due to Covid-19 impact
The court extended the deadline for the petitioner, an Assistant Registrar in the Tamil Nadu Medical Council, to submit a written response in a disciplinary matter due to difficulties in obtaining required certificates and the impact of Covid-19. The court directed the enquiry to be completed within 60 days after the submission. The Writ Petition was disposed of with no costs, emphasizing fairness and timely resolution of the case.
Issues: 1. Writ of Certorarified Mandamus sought to quash the communication from the 2nd respondent dated 19.05.2021.
Analysis: The petitioner, an Assistant Registrar in the Tamil Nadu Medical Council, was under suspension for failing to produce his basic S.S.L.C certificate and highest qualification certificate during a certificate verification process. A charge memo was issued, and the petitioner failed to submit a written submission within the specified period, leading to the presumption of guilt. The petitioner faced challenges in obtaining a duplicate S.S.L.C certificate due to loss and family calamity, delaying his response. The petitioner requested certain documents from the 1st respondent, which were not provided, further complicating the situation.
The Tamil Nadu Medical Council argued that the petitioner failed to produce the required certificates and had misconducted himself, justifying the charges against him. The petitioner's request for additional documents was deemed irrelevant to the enquiry, as all relevant documents had already been shared. However, considering the petitioner's difficulties in obtaining the S.S.L.C certificate and the impact of the Covid-19 situation, the court extended the deadline for submitting the written submission. The court ruled that the decision on the relevance of documents requested by the petitioner should be made by the petitioner, not the management. Consequently, the deadline was extended until 30.06.2021, with instructions for the enquiry to be completed within 60 days from commencement after the submission of the written response.
In conclusion, the court disposed of the Writ Petition with no costs, directing the petitioner to submit the written submission within the extended deadline and proceeding with the enquiry accordingly. The judgment aimed to provide a fair opportunity for the petitioner to defend his case while ensuring timely completion of the enquiry process.
