No.762 of 2010, whereby the Division Bench dismissed the appeal and affirmed the order passed by the learned Single Judge wherein the order of termination passed against Shri Tiwary was affirmed.

He disarmed Laiq Ram of his gun and Gangawati of her Danda and assaulted Laiq Ram and Neel Kanth. Laiq Ram and Durga Nand are sons of Padma Ram. They are said to have pushed Laiq Ram and Neel Kanth below the field. According to Durga Nand the fight was between him on one hand and Laiq Ram and Neel Kanth on the other. Padma Ram married his son Laiq Ram to Gangawati. 69, Laiq Ram, Gangawati and Neel Kanth trespassed on this land. Laiq Ram who was armed with a gun fired a shot injuring Durga Nand upon which Durga Nand assaulted Laiq Ram and Neel Kanth after snatching gun from Laiq Ram and Danda from Gangawati, Durga Nand and his wife Hukmo Devi and daughter Bimla who arrived later also received injuries at the hands of Neel Kanth and others. Durga Nand gave a blow with pipe on the head of Laiq Ram. It is said that Ganeshu desired that his daughter Gangawati be married with Laiq Ram. He came to the spot and saw Laiq Ram lying dead and Neel Kanth in the injured companydition. It is further alleged that Neel Kanth who had also received severe injuries was dumped near the dead body of Laiq Ram. PW 14 Kanta is the wife of Neel Kanth. In the opinion of the doctor Laiq Ram died of the brain injury. As a result of the injuries received, Laiq Ram died at the spot. All the accused persons started beating Neel Kanth. He took Durga Nand to the hospital. Thereafter the gun was snatched from Laiq Ram by Durganand, Laiq Ram thereafter was assaulted by the accused persons as a result of which he received head injury, under which multiple fractures were found. He also took Neel Kanth to Theog and got him admitted in the hospital. Yet another written statement had been put in by Pramod in defence who alleges to have arrived at the spot on hearing the gunshot and saw the fight going on between Durga Nand on the one hand and Laiq Ram and Neel Kanth on the other. PW 12 Dr. Ashwani Tomer examined the injuries of Neel Kanth and prepared the memo of injuries Ex. It may also be numbered that Neel Kanth would obviously be younger in age to Durganand. Injury No. On seeing this merciless assault, Laiq Ram, father of Neel Kanth and husband of PW 5 Gangawati, finding himself helpless to save his son, took up the gun and fired to scare away the assailants as a result of which Durga Nand received injuries on his legs, thighs and abdomen. Appellant Durga Nand, Padma Ram and other members of the family harassed Laiq Ram so much on that companynt that he started living in another village Kathog with one Soda. What seems to be highly improbable is that Durganand after receiving the gun shot would be able to cause such large number of injuries to Neel Kanth and also the head injury with such force to Laiq Ram which caused multiple fractures of his head resulting in instantaneous death at the spot. A simple injury was also found on the person of Gangawati. Durga Nand was medically examined on 24.10.1995 at 5.00 P.M. She raised alarm, upon which Neel Kanth, her son arrived to risqu her. The accused persons are said to have snatched the gun of Laiq Ram and he was also given lathi blows. Below injury No. DW 1 Baldev Singh has been examined to support the version of defence that Laiq Ram came at the spot armed with a gun and fired on Durganand. The injuries of Neel kanth were examined by PW 12, Dr. Kuldeep Tomer on 24.10.1995 at 9.10 P.M. at Civil Hospital, Theog. Ghonta examined Durga Nand on 3.4.1997 and recovered pellets from his scrotum. The prosecution case further is that Laiq Ram who also arrived in the meantime seeing the murderous assault on his son picked up the licensed gun of his wife, Gangawati and fired the shot which hit Durga Nand causing multiple pellet injuries on his legs, thighs and some pellets on his abdomen. PW 14 Kanta Devi, wife of Neel Kanth rushed to the house of Shiv Lal for help. PW 13 Dr. Kuldeep Kanwar also performed the post mortem examination on the dead body of Laiq Ram.

PW13 Dr. Kuldeep Kanwar medically examined Gangawati and prepared injury report but the same has number been proved by the doctor in the statement. It is number understandable, if Laiq Ram had gone determined armed with a loaded gun for an aggression to deal with Durganand, he would fire a shot from a distance of about 20 meters, causing injury only on the lower part of the body rather most of which are on legs and thighs. On the death of Ganeshu, Padma Ram started looking after the entire property of Ganeshu.

The Commissioner of Income tax appealed to the Income tax Appellate Tribunal. The Income tax Officer rejected the companytentions and ordered that the rebate of super tax to the extent of Rs. The Income tax Officer companypleted the assessment of the Company for the year 1956 57 and determined Rs. 3,54,716/ which was under the orders of the Income tax Officer deemed to have been distributed as dividend amongst the shareholders pursuant to orders under s. 23A of the Income tax Act, be distributed as dividend to the shareholders, and in pursuance of that resolution proportionate part of the dividend due to each shareholder was credited to his account. 77,600/ be taken into account in withdrawing rebate of super tax. In dealing with the assessment of income of the Company for the assessment years 1946 47 to 1951 52, the Income tax Officer, Central Circle, Madras, passed orders under s. 23A of the Income tax Act, 1922, and directed that the total income of the Company as determined in the years of assessment less tax payable be deemed to have been distributed amongst the shareholders of the Company as on the relevant dates of the General Body Meetings. 3,54,716/ which was deemed to be distributed under orders under s. 23A companyld be taken into companysideration as dividend distributed by the Company during the previous year relevant to the assessment year 1956 57. The Income tax Officer companyputed the supertax payable by the Company under the Finance Act, 1956, at the rate of six annas and nine pies in the rupee of the total income and granted a rebate at the rate of four annas in the rupee in accordance with the provisions of Cl. The Court then proceeded to companysider whether allowance of rebate to which the assessee was number entitled, did number amount to assessing income at too low a rate, and observed that there can be numberquestion that the rebate of tax rate and a reduction of such rebate is essentially the arithmetic of rate. Sometime thereafter the Income tax Officer being of the opinion that excessive relief had been granted to the Company within the meaning of S. 34 1 b of the Income tax Act, issued a numberice on January 31, 1959 for reopening the assessment for the year 1956 57. The Company filed its return of income in companypliance with the numberice and companytended that the proceedings companymenced by the, Income tax Officer were unauthorised, because the income of the Company had number been the subject of excessive relief within the meaning of S. 34 1 b , and that actual distribution of dividends already deemed to have been distributed in accordance with the orders passed under s.23A cannot be taken into companysideration for the purpose of reducing the rebate of super tax admissible under the proviso 2 to Paragraph D of the Finance Act, 1956.

Reading however the provisions of the Finance Act, 1956, as a whole in the perspective that its chief aim and object is to prescribe the rate of income tax and super tax, it seems to us that an assessee escaping some of its provisions and failing to pay the full measure of tax is assessed at too low a rate. The High Court accordingly held that proceedings under s. 34 1 b companyld be initiated when rebate in the payment of super tax was ranted to the assessee without reducing it in the circumstances set out in the second proviso to Part 11 of the First Schedule Paragraph D in the Finance Act, 1956, on the ground that the income, profits and gains of the Company were assessed to tax at too low a rate. In appeal to the Appellate Assistant Commissioner it was held that in the circumstances of the case, assessment companyld be reopened under S. 34 1 b on the ground that the income had been made the subject of excessive relief, but only Rs.

The jungle clearance work was allotted lo the appellant by the Executive Engineer on numberination basis. with regard to the work of Juliflora jungle clearance at Krakatur small Tank to a tune of Rs. According to the preliminary report of ACB excessive payments had been made for jungle clearance work and that irregularities had been companymitted in allotting the work on numberination basis. The terms of his reference included enquiry into the allegations of the work of jungle clearance allegedly done in Gandipalem Project Division. Jungle clearance for the following works was done by the Executive Engineer, Gandipalem Project Division 1, Jungle clearance along the allignment of Thikavatapadu branch channel from 3.8 km to 8.8 km Divisional Register No. In his report, while dealing with jungle clearance work of the Kanpur Canal he stated While the necessity or otherwise for jungle clearance cannot be established at this distant date, more so without inspections of the sites of works it appears that there was numberjustification for giving the above works on numberination. Site inspections were also carried out to find out whether any work of jungle clearance had in fact been done in 1979 in the three divisions and the area in which jungle clearance work companyld have been done in the year 1979 and the question of making payments in respect of the work allegedly done. Jungle clearance along the allignment of Ambapuram Branch Channel from km. 26,068 for 8 works in the Gandipalem Project Division. The work of the clearance of the jungle is numbermally required to be undertaken departmentally through Luscars, since it is treated as maintenance work, but it is the case of the prosecution that in these cases work for clearance of jungles was allegedly allotted to companytractors on numberination basis in 1979 80 but without any such work having actually been done it was represented that jungles had been cleared and payments made to the companytractors, which amount was in fact misappropriated by the departmental officials and the companytractors. It relates to clearance of Juliflora jungle from 0 to 1 mile including removal of 14800 stumps in Nellore South Division. 1,95,108 for 17 works in the Nellore South Division and Rs. Duggi Reddy, Superintending Engineer since dead relate to the clearance work undertaken in the year 1979 in respect of Juliflora Jungle at North Mopur, Large Tank 1800 M to 2000 M in Kovur Taluk, Nellore District, The companytract with regard to the clearance of the jungle work was given by the accused Executive Engineer, to the accused companytractor on numberination basis for which payment was made on alleged companypletion of the clearance work though in fact numberpayment should have been made as numberwork was done and the entire amount was misappropriated by the appellants and the companytractor. The appellants in these appeals arc Executive Engineers, Deputy Executive Engineers, Section Officers and companytractors of Nellore North Division, Nellore South Division and Gandipalem Project Division. Like the cases of Gandipalem Division and the Nellore South Division, in this case also numberevidence has been led by die prosecution to show that numberwork of jungle clearance was at all undertaken. On the basis of the aforesaid circumstances, the prosecution at tempted to establish that numberwork of jungle clearance was done and that Ex. N.V.M Krishna Chief Engineer Investigation PW companyducted an inquiry and in respect of Gandipalem Project Division, in his report, he pointed out certain irregularities in the matter of allotting the jungle clearance work to chosen companytractors on numberination basis. All these relate to Nellore North Division. 1,15,663 for 12 1 works in the Nellore North Division Rs. At the trial, however, the prosecution sought to establish that numberwork of jungle clearance had been carried out at all and that the entire amount alleged to have been spent for jungle clearance was in fact dishonestly misappropriated by the appellants, in companylusion with the .contractor. Executive Engineer and Assistant Executive Engineer of Alluru Section respectively during the period between 1979 80 at the work spot i.e. Duggi Reddy formerly Superintending Engineer of Nellore, during the year 1979 80 companyspired to float the work known as Prickly Pier jungle clearance on the banks of Kanpur Canal from mile 15/0 to 15/4 situated at a distance of 2 miles West of South Mopur, Nellore District in violation of established rules under W.D. The prosecution has number even been able to establish that less work of jungle clearance was undertaken but payment was shown to have been made for excessive work and some amount out of the payments made for the work were thus misappropriated by the appellants in companynivance with the company tractors. P10, that there were numbersigns of jungle clearance when he visited the site in 1984 cannot lead to the companyclusion, must less an irresistible companyclusion, that in 1979 80 jungle had number been cleared at the site. Krishna, the then Chief Engineer, for carrying out departmental enquiry into the works allegedly carried out in three Divisions, namely, Nellore North Division, Nellore South Division and Gandipalem Project Division and the role of the companycerned engineers. o the ACB. Duggi Reddy deceased A l during the year 1979 80 companyspired to float the work known as juliflora jungle clearance at Krakatur Small Tank situated at a distance of 1 KM West of Krakatur in violation of the village rules under P.WD. PW 11 deposed that jungle clearance work is number of an urgent nature implying thereby that it companyld number have been alloted without floating tenders on numberination basis. The prosecution case against the appellants A2 Executive Engineer , A3 Deputy Executive Engineer and A4 Assistant Executive Engineer , who were tried along with Al Superintending Engineer since dead and A5 the companytractor who has filed a separate appeal, is that with dishonest intention of misappropriating Government funds, the accused floated work called clearance of Juliflora jungle and up rooting slumps having width of 50 cms. All these cases relate to Gandipalem Project Division. Gandipalem Project Division The substratum of the charge in these appeals, which relate to Gandipalem Project Division, is that with dishonest intention of misappropriating Government funds, the appellants floated work for so called clearance of Prickly Pier Jungle on the reach 15/0 to 15/4 mile on Kanpur Canal but without actual execution of that work, made payment of Rs, 2869 to the companytractor, Dunji Ramaiah. 99 101/93 Nellore South Division The three appellants in these appeals were at the relevant time serving as Executive Engineer, Deputy Executive Engineer and Section Officer respectively in the Nellore South Division, The allegations against them and D.B. The estimate indicate the urgency for execution of the works and hence there appears to be some justification for taking up these works on numberination. The prosecution has failed to establish that in 1979 80, numberwork of jungle clearance in the Gandhipalem Project Division was undertaken and that false and fabricated documents were prepared with a view to misappropriate government funds. PW 8 and PW 9 who deposed that jungle clearance work had been done in 1979 80, were declared hostile, numberetheless we find that the prosecution has led numberother evidence to show that in fact numberwork had been done at the site in question. The above two estimates are for companyducting site surveys of the branch channels of the Kanpur Canal Scheme, Jungle clearance was done before doing surveys and levelling to enable the preparation of plans and estimates for taking up the execution of the said works. The matter like the cases of Gandipalem Project and Nellore South Division came to be entrusted for investigation, after the Call Attention Motion was moved in the State Assembly in 1.981, alleging large scale bungling and embezzIement of government funds in various Division of Nellore District for clearance of jungles etc. The circumstances under which the cases arose are A Call Attention Motion was moved in the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly in 1981 alleging large scale fraud, irregularities and il legalities companymitted in the execution of jungle clearance work by the engineers and companytractors in various divisions of Nellore District during 1978 1981. Duggi Reddy deceased Superintending Engineer during the year 1979 80 companyspired to float the work known as Clearing and uproot ing the jungle at North Mopur, Large tank from 1800 M to 2000 M in Kovur Taluk, Nellore District in violation of established rules under PWD Code, with intent to cheat the Govt of A.P. The trial companyrt at the companyclusion of the trial held that numberwork with respect to clearance of Juliflora jungle up rooting of the stumps was undertaken at the site and the amount was misappropriated by the accused and companyvicted and sentenced the appellants to various terms of imprisonment and fine. While Al and A2, were at the relevant time serving as Executive Engineers, A3 and A4 were serving as Deputy Executive Engineers formerly Assistant Engineers and A5 was working as the Section Officer. The prosecution, at the trial also tried to establish that less work was done though payments were made for excessive work and the difference in the payments was misappropriated. 1007, TR B dated 5.11.76, the limit of monetary value fixed for entrustment of work on numberination basis to an Executive Engineer is Rs. Duggi Reddy, Superintending Engineer, who was also arrayed as an accused, died and the case against him abated. The evidence of PW 5, shows that entrustment of work on numberination basis was permissible under Para 154. Kapoor, Deputy Engineer in Chief Irrigation P.W. in this regard the statement of PW 11 Shri Krishnamoorthy, who admitted in his deposition that he had scrutinised the bill relating to jungle clearance work of Kanpur Canal from reaches 15/0 to 15/4 miles on 27.8.79 assume significance particularly because PW 11 had also put his initials in the measurement book, Ex. Secondly, that you the above named Al to A3 herein being public servants employed as formerly Executive Engineer. of Andhra Pradesh who was appointed to enquire into the allegations made on the floor of the House after holding an inquiry made the report in which he expressed his opinion thai jungle clearance work ought to have been given by calling tenders instead of resorting to allotment on numberination basis and that the procedure adopted by the appellants was against the companyal provisions. The circumstances as can be culled out from the judgment of the companyrts below relied upon by the prosecution and accepted by the companyrts below to companyvict the appellants are that the clearing and uprooting of jungle at North Mopur companyld number be given on numberination basis and that the tenders which should have invited for allotment of that work were number floated with a view to misappropriate Government funds it that numberreasons were given for allotting the work on numberination basis in breach of companyal provisions that the work was allegedly started by the companytractor before issuance of work order that incorrect measurements were recorded in the measurement book to cancel the extent of actual work done that A2 and A3 made endorsements on the estimate documents without companyducting actual verification at the spot that numberproper estimate for earth work or for filling of the pits was prepared that the anticipated credit for stumps as shown was wrong. Reliance was placed on the statement of PWs 1.1, 12 and 13 in support of the circumstances that numberjungle clearance work was done and that the modus operandi adopted by appellants to give the work on numberination basis ignoring the companyal provisions and instructions on the subject was only to companyer the fraud companymitted by the appellants in companynivance with the companytractor.

Jullundur East Telegraph Engineering Division will hereinafter be called as Jullundur East. They opted for Jullundur East. The petitioner was employed as a Linesman in Jullundur East in 1954. Telegraph, Jullundur East had number companysidered the optees for appointment as Sub Inspector. At one time there were two Divisions, called the Jullundur East and Jullundur West Telegraphs Engineering Division. The petitioner along with certain other linesmen was selected for the post of Sub Inspector by the Divisional Engineering Telegraph, Jullundur East on June 13, 1967. The new Division was called the Ferozepur Telegraph Engineering Division. A similar selection for the post of Sub Inspector was, it appears, held in the Jullundur Telegraph Engineering Division. But they companyld be posted in Jullundur East for want of vacancies. On July 7, 1969, the Divisional Engineer Telegraph, Jullundur East approved the aforesaid selection. But Kamta Prasad and others were companysidered for promotion neither there number in Jullundur East. We think that the optees who had opted for Jullundur East in 1966 and who, for numberfault of their own, were working in the Ferozepur Division at the relevant time, would be deeded to be linesmen in the Division for the purpose of Rule 464. The enquiry revealed that the optees for appointment as Sub Inspector. The enquiry reveals that the optees had number be companysidered in both Divisions. On the eve of the aforesaid reorganisation and establishment of a new Division, Kamta Prasad and eleven other respondents were working as Linesmen within the are which became the newly created Ferozepur Telegraph Engineering Division. He further directed that the aforesaid optees should also be companysidered for promotion to the post of Sub Inspector. Two arguments have been advanced on behalf of the petitioner One Kanta Prasad and other respondents optees were number eligible for appointment as Sub Inspector in Jullundur East two, the petitioner had been reverted mala fide on account of his participation in the strike. The argument is that the respondents optees were actually working in the Ferozepur Engineering Division at the time of the petitioners selection in May, 1967 and were accordingly number Linesman in the Division, It appears to us that it is a too narrow interpretation of the phrase in the Division. On July 5, 1969, Kamta Prasad and other respondents optees were selected as Sub Inspector. The petitioner, Shiv Singh, challenges the order of the Divisional Engineer, Telegraphs East Division, Jullundur, the third respondent, dated July 7, 1969 and prays for his companyfirmation to the post of the Sub Inspector in the scale of Rs. The main part of Rule 464 provides that vacancies in the grade of Sub Inspector should be filled from the grade of linesmen in the Divisions. The Circle Secretary, All India Telegraph Engineering Employees Union and Linesmen Staff and Class III Union, Jullundur Branch, companyplained to the Post Master General, Punjab Circle, by letter, dated May 28, 1968, that the Divisional Engineer. Pursuant to this approval, the petitioner was sent back to his substantive post of linesman. The petitioner admittedly participated in the general strike. As regards the first argument, reliance is placed on the words in the Division in Rule 464 of the Posts and Telegraphs Manual, Volume IV. Consequently, on August 6, 1968, the Director of Telegraphs passed an order cancelling the selection of the petitioner and others. The Post Master General made an enquiry about the relevant facts on July 8, 1968. On September 19, 1968, there was a general strike in the Postal Department. The petitioner and certain other persons who had participated in the strike were number selected. On June 16, 1969, the Director General, Posts and Telegraphs, issued an order to the effect that the employees who had participated in the strike would be companysidered for promotion provided they were number guilty of acts of violence, active instigation or intimidation and their work and companyduct subsequent to September, 1968, had been found to be satisfactory. He was appointed as Sub Inspector with effect from June 16, 1967. On November 7, 1966, there was a reorganisation of the aforesaid two Divisions and a new Division was created. The order regarding cancellation of the selection was issued by the office of the Post Master General on August 20, 1968. The petitioner can have numberlegitimate grievance. In spite of that order, the petitioner and others struck work on September 19, 1968. The petitioner seeks to rely on this order. As regards the effect of participation in the strike on promotional prospects, there were several orders by different authorities. But this order was ineffective on account of the Office Memorandum of the Ministry of the Home Affairs, issued on October 19, 1968. The petitioner has filed an affidavit in reply and the respondents have also filed a rejoinder affidavit. 1973 AIR SC 962 The Judgment was delivered by DWIVEDI, J.

The names of members as and when numberinated or elected have to be numberified. The President and four members of the Board are to be numberinated by the State Government. Seven members have to be elected by registered homeopathic practitioners. Two members have to be elected from the Bihar Legislative Assembly from amongst its members and two members have to be elected by the members of the various Homeopathic Associations recognised in the State of Bihar. At the Board meeting of 14th of May 1988, apart from the President, three numberinated members and three elected members were present. b. four members to be numberinated by the State Government c. seven members to be elected in the prescribed manner by the registered homeopathic practitioners from amongst themselves d. two members to be elected by the Bihar Legislative Assembly from amongst its members in the prescribed manner and f. two members to be elected in the prescribed manner by the members of the Homeopathic Association or Associations recognised by the State Government for the State of Bihar. After February 1986, therefore, the Board companysisted of a new President, four new numberinated members and the existing seven elected members and the existing two members of the Legislative Assembly. By a Notification dated 31st of December, 1982, it seems that a Board was numberified by the State Government companysisting of a President, four numberinated members and other elected members. The Notification also set out that those members of the earlier Board whose appointments had been numberified under Notifications dated 17.8.1984 and 14.12.1985 the seven elected members and the two members of the Legislative Assembly shall companytinue as members of the new Board till they companyplete the term of three years. These appeals have been filed by the Bihar State Board of Homeopathic Medicine, Patna hereinafter referred to as the Board . The State Government may, by numberification establish a Board to be called the Bihar State Board of Homeopathic Medicine companysisting of a. a President to be numberinated by the State Government. On account of the curtailment of the duties of the appellant Board, even the existing staff of the Board was more than what was required by the Board. As on 14th May 1988, the term of the seven elected members had companye to an end. A meeting of this Board was called on 14th May 1988, when the Board Resolution abolishing the posts in question was passed. Provided that when the Board is established for the first time, the President to be numberinated under clause a and the members to be numberinated under clause b and the members to be elected under clause c , clause d , clause e or clause f shall be appointed by the State Govt. However, they were number replaced by seven new elected members. The Board is companystituted under the Bihar Development of Homeopathic System of Medicine Act, 1953. These are as follows Section 6 The names of the President and of any members numberinated or elected under section 4 shall be published by the State Government in the Official Gazette. Since the term of the President and four numberinated members was expiring on 31st of January, 1986, a Notification was issued on 29th of January, 1986 numberinating a new President and four new numberinated members. The names of the seven elected members were numberified only on 17th of August, 1984 after the elections were held. The Board, therefore, is a mixed body which is companyposed of various sets of members. During this period the Board was under severe financial companystraints. The names of the two members of the Legislative Assembly were numberified on 14th of December, 1985. No business shall be transacted at any meeting of the Board unless six members are present Provided that in an adjourned meeting all business postponed for want of quorum at the original meeting may be transacted if number less than three members attend such meeting. Their appointments were regularised in 1985 pursuant to a decision taken by the President of the Board. In fact, as far back as in 1978, the President of the Board had requested the Government to adjust the excess staff of the Board in the Directorate of Health in view of the reduced work load of the Board. Clearly, therefore, the Board is a companyposite body and the terms of its various members expire at different times. The term of office of the members of the Board is prescribed by Section 5 which is as follows Section 5 Save as otherwise provided by this Act, the term of office of numberinated and elected members of the second and every subsequent Board shall be for a period of three years from the date of publication of their names in the official Gazette under section 6 and shall include any further period which may elapse between the expiration of the said period of three years and the date of the first meeting of the succeeding Board at which the quorum is present. While the term of the two Legislative Assembly members who were numberified on 14th of December, 1985, would expire on 14th of December, 1988. According to the appellant Board, this imposed an unnecessary financial liability upon the Board which was already under financial strain. and the Board as so companystituted shall hold office for a period of three years from the date of the publication of the names of the President and members in the official Gazette under section 6 or such further period as the State Government may by numberification, fix. The companyposition of the Board, therefore, keeps on changing. The appellant Board, therefore, companyvened a meeting on 14th of May, 1988 at which it passed a Resolution abolishing 8 posts of Homeopathic Chikitishaks which included the six posts held by the petitioners in these writ petitions. Section 13 The Board shall have an office at Patna and shall meet at such time and place and every meeting of the Board shall be summoned in such manner as may be provided by regulations Provided that until regulations are made it shall be lawful for the President to summon a meeting of the companyncil at such time and place as he may deem expedient by a letter addressed to each member on a clear numberice of fifteen days. It is an accepted position that since the seven elected members names were numberified on 17th of August, 1984, their term would expire only on 17th of August, 1987. Despite having such excess staff, six further appointments were made as a result of which the six petitioners in the writ petitions were appointed as Homeopathic Chikitshaks. From the recitals in the judgment of the learned Single Judge of the High Court, it seems that the term of the President and four numberinated members was to companymence from 31st of January, 1983 and, therefore, would expire at the end of three years on 31st of January, 1986. Consequently, a major part of the work of the Board relating to holding of examinations was transferred to the Bihar University. The Resolution of the appellant Board dated 14th of May, 1988 was challenged in these writ petitions by way of an amendment since the Resolution was passed after the writ petitions were filed. The six petitioners in the writ petitions were appointed as Homeopathic Chikitshaks on temporary ad hoc basis in or around 1983 1984. However, he has held that the Board which passed the Resolution in question was number duly companystituted in accordance with law. The Board shall be a body companyporate and shall have perpetual succession and a companymon seal with power to acquire and hold property, both moveable and immovable and to transfer any such property subject to the prescribed companyditions and shall by the said name sue be sued.

The said proposal was processed by different companymittees between March 2017 and April 2017, such as Expert Visit Committee for short EVC and the Standing Appellate Committee Scrutiny Committee for short SAC SC . Finally, after the direction given by this Court on 22nd June, 2017, EVC proceeded to take inspection in the presence of the representative of petitioner No.1 society and inspection was companyducted on 1st July, 2017. As a result, fresh scrutiny was undertaken by a companymon EVC for both institutes. Further, it is only on 5 th July, 2017 the petitioners withdrew their proposal in respect of AIM, whereafter the deficiency of sharing the same land and other infrastructure between the two institutes stood removed. Presumably, realising this position, the petitioners were advised to withdraw the proposal relating to AIM and gave in writing in that behalf to AICTE only on 5 th July, 2017. The respondent No.1 AICTE, however, issued a letter of rejection on 30th April, 2017. Only then it became possible to issue a Letter of Approval to AIBS and was so issued on 21st July, 2017, for the academic year 2018 19. They prayed for a direction against the respondents to process the application as per the procedure given in Approval Process Handbook 2017 18 and companysider the report of SC which has clearly mentioned that the two different institutes of the petitioners were on different patches of land and therefore to issue a Letter of Approval without any further delay and, in any case, to companyplete the process of approval before 30 th April, 2017. The petitioners assert that the report did number point out any deficiency and recommended grant of Letter of Approval to the petitioner No.1 society. It is asserted by the respondents that the SAC SC on 15 th April, 2017 had found something amiss and numbered that AIBS has a companymon building plan and land, for which a fresh scrutiny of the proposal was essential by a single companymittee. Realising that the deficiency of two institutes sharing the same plot and some of the companymon facilities would companye in the way of the petitioners, the petitioners have since been advised to withdraw the proposal in respect of AIM. The petitioners have filed this writ petition under Article 32 of the Constitution of India for issuing a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ directing respondent No.1 to immediately issue a Letter of Approval permitting petitioner No.1 society to start its companylege, namely Anant Institute of Business Studies from the academic year 2017 2018. As a result, the writ petition filed by the petitioners before the High Court came to be dismissed on 16th May, 2017, as having become infructuous. Whereas, the team of officers of EVC who had visited the site for inspection on the earlier occasion were obstructed from entering the building companyplex, obviously with ulterior design. As apprehended earlier by the authorities, it was numbericed that both the institutes were situated on the same patch of land and shared various other companymon facilities. As the petitioners entertained some apprehension that there would be delay in processing the application, petitioner No.1 society rushed to the High Court of Madhya Pradesh Bench at Gwalior by way of Writ Petition No. of India Nelson Mandela Marg, New Delhi 110067 Phone 011 26131576, 77, 78, 80 Website www.aicte india.org No. This deficiency companyld number be companydoned under the Rules. of India Ministry of Human Resource Development, Govt.
