....at Hapur. It is the case of the Corporation that the appellant had committed serious financial irregularities which came to the light of the Corporation and in respect thereof the Managing Director of the Corporation instituted a departmental enquiry sometime in October, 1997. The charges were found proved and ultimately the Managing Director passed the order dated 29.7.2000 dismissing the services of the appellant with immediate effect. An appeal was preferred to the Chairman of the Corporation against the order of punishment. The appellate authority by order dated 14.9.2000 partly allowed the appeal and ordered for reinstatement of the appellant with an observation that if the Managing Director desires he may inflict minor punishment of censure against the appellant. It was also found by the appellate authority that no charges were proved against the appellant nor the Corporation has suffered any financial loss. The conduct of the appellant, it has been observed, was "infirm" in following the departmental rules and procedure and he has been careless in his dealings. It appears that against the order passed by the Chairman reinstating the appellant, revisional power of the Stat....

....984. Rule 13 of the U.P. Rules of 1999 provides as under : "Revision - Notwithstanding anything contained in these rules, the Government may of its own motion or on the representation of concerned Government servant call for the record of any case decided by an authority subordinate to it in the exercise of any power conferred on such authority by these rules; and (a) confirm, modify or reverse the order passed by such authority; or (b) direct that further inquiry he held in the case, or (c) reduce or enhance the penalty imposed by the order; or (d) make such other order in the case as it may deem fit.'' The U.P. Rules of 1999 relate to the employees of the State Government. The revisional power has thus been vested in the State Government to exercise the same on its own motion or on the representation of concerned government servant. In exercise of this power the State Government could call for the record of any case decided by an authority subordinate to it and pass appropriate order confirming or modifying or reversing the order under revisional scrutiny besides other powers as provided for under the Rule. The question for ....

....s on a particular subject as applicable to other organizations. The same procedure or protection will be applicable and available to the employees of the corporation as may be provided under the U.P. Rules of 1999 but the corresponding authorities would obviously be different. Otherwise authorities of the other department whose Rules are adopted may get wide powers like looking into any records of the organization adopting the rules and exercising powers like in this case vested under rule 13, upsetting, modifying, reversing orders passed by the authorities of the adopting organization. The learned counsel for the appellant also draws our attention to rule 13 to indicate that if the rule is to be applicable, as it is, then the government will have power to revise the order only in case it has been passed by an authority subordinate to it. The Managing Director or the Chairman are the authorities and functionaries of the corporation. Incumbent of such offices may even though some times be Govt. servants on deputation but while working as Chairman or the Managing Director or any authority in the organization or the corporation, they would not be subordinate to the government.

....that their conditions of service shall be governed by Model Standing Orders. Some of the provisions of the Model Standing Orders provided for making the services of some categories of employees permanent. The seasonal employees also claimed the same benefit. It has been held that it was incorrect to say that all the Model Standing Orders would be applicable to the seasonal employees. It has been observed that the Model Standing Orders would be applicable to the seasonal employees mutatis-mutandis. It is further observed that the Model Standing Order no.4-B in particular, will be inapplicable to the seasonal employees because of the very nature of their employment and hence it could not be read into service conditions of the seasonal employees even though it was mentioned in their letter of appointments that they shall be governed by the provisions of the Model Standing Orders. It was further held that only such conditions of service would be applicable which could be applied to the seasonal employees and not the other conditions. It has also been observed that the Model Standing Orders would be applicable to the seasonal employees mutatis-mutandis. The expression "mutatis-mutand....
