Hon'ble Yashwant Varma,J.
Bearing in mind the seriousness of the allegations which have led to the petitioner being placed under suspension, the Court finds no ground to interfere with the order impugned. However noting that the order itself was passed in November 2019, the ends of justice would merit this petition being disposed of with a direction to the concerned disciplinary authority to endeavour to conclude the disciplinary proceedings with expedition and in any case within a period of three months from today. The direction is subject to the petitioner cooperating in the enquiry and not taking any unnecessary adjournments.
