AND WHEREAS, It has further been contended by the Charged Official that on
5.7.2011, she went to the Principal of the school and requested to allow her to join the
duties but the Principal mala fide did not allow to resume her duties. Thereafter, she
presented herself ~efore the Dy. Director of Education(East) and requested her to direct
the concerned school to allow her for joining but that too did not find favor.
AND WHERE~S, in the end of her representation, the Charged Official has
submitted that the Inquiry Officer while submitting her report has not taken into

AND WHEREAS, the undersigned has carefully gone through the chargesheet
memo, Inquiry Report and other relevant record of the case adduced before me.
AND WHEREAS, perusal of the record reveals that the Charged Official was
granted NOC for visiting Sydney(Australia) during the period 10.7.2008 to 7.10.2008 by
the Competent Authority vide memorandum dated 25.6.2008 with the condition that she
will not s1ay abroad beyond the period for which permission was. accorded. The Charged
Official was supposed to join her duties
-w.e.f.
8.10.2008, afler expiry of period
for
which
permission was accorded, however, instead of joining her duties, she sent an application
dated 19.10.2008, that too after expiry of sanctioned leave, for extension of earned leave
upto
11.2 2009
on family circumstances. Applying for extension of leave clearly indicates
that the Charged Official failed to comply with the terms and conditions as laid down in
the NOC dated 25.6.2008 .

concerned Dy Director of Education to join her duties, however, the Charged Official
failed to comply the directions issued by her superior authorities and never Joined the
duties since then, thus proving the willful absence on part of the Charged Official
AND WHEREAS, as per provisions of rule
of the CCS(Leave) Rules, 1972,
leave cannot be claimed as of right and when the exiqences of public service so require,
leave of any kind may be refused or revoked by the authority competent to grant it. The
request for extensipn of leave made by the Charged Official vide application dated
I
1910.2008 was duly considered by the competent authority before rejecting the same.
i
AND WHEREAS, contention of the Charged Official that she was entitled for
grant of Special Disability Leave as per provisions contained in rule 45 of Leave Rules is
not tenable as
it

as is certified by an Authorised Medical Attendant which is not done in the present case.
AND WHEREAS, contention of the Charged Official that she was not allowed to
join her duties by the school authorities as well as by the district authorities on 5.7.2011 is
f
also not tenable as there is nothing on record which proves her said contention. The
Charged Official has also not submitted any documentary evidence in support of her said
claim which shows that it is just an afterthought attempted by the Charged Official to turn
the matter in her favor.
I
AND WHEREAS, the Inquiry Officer has conducted the inquiry proceedings in the
case as per provisions contained in rule 14 of the CCS(CCA) Rules, 1965 and has taken
