Puducherry, the 10th March 2016.

ORDER

Whereas, one month Notice of termination of service

was issued under rule 5 of the Central Civil Services

(Temporary Service) Rules, 1965 to some Medical

Officers who were unauthorisedly absent from

service vide Notice of termination of service issued

under rule 5 (1) of the CCS (Temporary Service) Rules, 1965,

dated 17-7-2012.

2. And whereas, Dr. M. Sivaraj is one amongst them

and he was issued Notice of termination of service by

treating that he was on unauthorised absence from

service w.e.f. 22-6-2011.

3. And whereas, Dr. M. Sivaraj has reported and

brought to the Notice that within one month of the

Notice period under representations of Dr. M. Sivaraj,

General Duty Medical Officer, dated 8-8-2012/13-8-2012

that he was undergoing higher studies viz., Postgraduate

Diploma course in TB and Chest Diseases at Madras

Medical College, Chennai for which he had already

submitted application for E.O.L for the period of 2 years

from 22-6-2011 along with the necessary Bond under

rule 32 (2) (e) of the CCS (Leave) Rules, 1972 for which

he was entitled as he was having more than 3 years of

service as on 22-6-2011 i.e. at the time of admission to

the higher studies. He has stated that in anticipation

of sanction of E.O.L. for study purpose, he left for his

Diploma course and he is very much willing to continue

in service and assured that he would rejoin duty the

next day of completion of his course. He has requested

to withdraw the Termination Order and to grant of E.O.L.

already applied for 2 years for study purpose.

4. And whereas, a thorough study was made with

reference to the connected records, which revealed

that:-

Dr. M. Sivaraj was appointed as General Duty Medical

Officer and posted in the Indira Gandhi Government

General Hospital and Postgraduate Institute,

Puducherry with effect from 7-4-2008. Subsequently,

he was transferred to CHC, Karikalampakkam during

the year 2010.

On selection for pursuing postgraduate diploma

course in TB and Chest Diseases (DTCD) (2 years

course) at Institute of Thoracic Medicine, Chetpet

through AIPGMEE -January 2011 session, he had

submitted an application for E.O.L. for study purpose

for a period of 2 years under rule 32 (2) (e) of the

CCS (Leave) Rules, 1972, for which he is eligible,

since he had completed required number of years of

service i.e. more than 3 years.

His letter, dated 21-6-2011 along with the leave

application and necessary Bond in Form-6 requesting

for sanction of E.O.L. had been forwarded by the

Medical Officer, In-charge, CHC, Karikalampakkam on

21-6-2011 to the Directorate. Whereas, the

Directorate has refused the leave applied for, since

the Medical Officer has not submitted his application

through proper channel nor obtained prior permission

while applying for postgraduate course and hence,

the leave application was returned to the Medical

Officer with the direction to report for duty

forthwith, failing which action would be taken against

him.

The Medical Officer In-charge CHC, Karikalampakkam

had forwarded the same to the residential address of

Dr. M.Sivaraj for his information since he was not

available in the Centre and he was already

undergoing study at Chennai.

In this position, as there was no response from

the Medical Officer who was staying at Chennai for

study purpose, it was treated as unauthorised

absence from service and action was taken against

him under Temporary Service Rules and accordingly

Termination Notice was issued.

5. And whereas, the above has made it clear that

rejecting his leave application to prosecute higher

studies only on the ground of non-obtaining of prior

permission was not in order. Having completed 3 years

and 2 months service, which makes him eligible to avail

E.O.L. to prosecute higher studies, the Medical Officer

in anticipation of the leave sanction proceeded to

undergo higher study at Chennai unaware of the fact

that his leave application was rejected, thereby, the

absence from service was treated as unauthorised

absence which consequently led to the issue of Notice

of termination of his service.

6. And whereas, inclusion of his case in the proposal

as one of the cases of unauthorised absence and action

contemplated against him thereon without knowing/

confirming the above factual position is not correct and

has to be treated as an erroneous one.

7. And whereas, in view of the above, the Notice of

termination from service which was issued inadvertently

in the case of Dr. M. Sivaraj, General Duty Medical

Officer has to be withdrawn with the approval of

Competent Authority. Subject to that, the Medical

Officer was permitted to rejoin duty into service after

completion of his higher studies with effect from

12-8-2013 in exigency of public interest.

8. Now, therefore, the Lieutenant-Governor is

pleased to order that the Notice of termination issued

in respect of Dr. M. Sivaraj, General Duty Medical Officer

under Notice of termination of service issued under

rules 5(1) of the (CCS Temporary Sevice) Rules 1965,

dated 17-7-2012 is deemed to have been withdrawn.

(By order of the Lieutenant-Governor)

V. JEEVA,

Under Secretary to Government (Health).
