HC relief for man left jobless after migration to another post

Chennai:03.10.2018

In an ‘out of box’ relief, the Madras high court has directed authorities to treat as voluntary retirement the resignation of an employee who quit service to migrate to another post where his selection was annulled after a litigation.

The transport department employee had resigned as a senior assistant engineer after 26 years of service in the TNSTC to migrate to another post in the Transport Subordinate Service.

His services, however, were terminated after a litigation over his selection as motor vehicle inspector.

Justice V Parthiban directed the government to extend all retirement benefits to petitioner S Chellamuthu, whose selection as Motor Vehicle Inspector in 2009 was set aside by the high court on a petition by an unsuccessful candidate, resulting in termination of his services.

Left jobless, the petitioner had sought a direction to the state public service commission to call him afresh for an interview for the motor vehicle inspector post or reinstate him as a senior assistant engineer in TNSTC, the post he had resigned from. PTI
