Court permits petitioner to seek outcome of vigilance inquiry on appointment. Respondents must respond within 4 weeks.
The court allowed the petitioner to request the respondents to disclose the outcome of the vigilance inquiry regarding his appointment to the Group 'C' post of Greaser in the Customs Marine Wing. The petitioner was granted four weeks to seek information under the Right to Information Act or submit a fresh representation. The respondents were directed to reply within the specified time frame, and the petitioner was given liberty to take legal action based on the response. The court clarified that the order did not address the merits of the case, and the petition was disposed of accordingly.
Issues involved: Petitioner's appointment to Group 'C' post of Greaser in Customs Marine Wing.
Analysis: The petitioner filed a petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking direction for his appointment to the Group 'C' post of Greaser in the Customs Marine Wing under the Customs Gujarat Zone. The recruitment process involved a written examination and a Swimming Test, which the petitioner cleared. However, after the results were declared, his name was not included in the list of successful candidates. The petitioner alleged that despite making representations and seeking information under the Right to Information Act, he was not informed about the outcome of the vigilance inquiry in which he had participated.
The court acknowledged that the petitioner had actively participated in the recruitment process and that his name was missing from the list of successful candidates. The petitioner's advocate argued that even though the petitioner's case was under consideration by the Vigilance Cell, he was not informed about his candidature for the post, despite clearing both examinations. The court noted the lack of response from the respondents to the petitioner's representations and the absence of communication regarding the vigilance inquiry results.
Given the circumstances and the petitioner's delay in approaching the court without notifying the other party, the court allowed the petitioner to request the respondents to disclose the outcome of the vigilance inquiry. The petitioner was granted four weeks to file an application under the Right to Information Act or submit a fresh representation seeking information about the vigilance inquiry results. The respondents were directed to provide a necessary reply within the specified time frame. The petitioner was also granted the liberty to take legal action based on the response received. Importantly, the court clarified that this order did not delve into the merits of the case, and the petition was disposed of accordingly.
