Jayan.V v. The Managing Director

ORDER The present writ petition has been filed by a Salesman in a TASMAC Shop challenging an order of transfer from a particular shop to the godown.

¶2According to the learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner, he was suspended on the allegation that he has charged more than the MRP rates for the liquor bottles. He was issued with a charge memo and after completion of the enquiry, he has been imposed with a penalty. The petitioner has accepted the said penalty and paid the penalty also. Thereafter, the order of suspension has been revoked and the present order of transfer has been made shifting the petitioner from the TASMAC shop to the godown at Aralvaimozhi in Kanyakumari District. This order is under challenge in the present writ petition.

¶3According to the learned Counsel appearing for the writ petitioner, the order is stigmatic in nature and therefore, the order should be quashed.

¶4Considering the fact that enquiry has already been completed and the petitioner has accepted the penalty and paid the fine as on today, no enquiry is pending as against the writ petitioner. In view of the culmination of the enquiry proceedings, the suspension order has been revoked and he has been transferred from the shop to the godown. This Court does not find any reason to interfere in the said order. Hence, this writ petition stands dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petition stands closed.
