to fulfil the second criteria, even then the Petitioner has no case as admittedly he did not have 8 years’ experience as Deputy Registrar having been appointed on the said post in the parent organisation in 2009 and the advertisement in question was issued on 05.09.2013. There is, however, merit in the contention of Respondent No.1 that Petitioner concealed material facts and misrepresented that he was working in Kumaun University in Pay Band Rs.37600-67000/- in Grade Pay of Rs.10000/-, whereas in fact, his last pay certificate on verification reflected that he was actually drawing a pay of Rs.22,220/- in PB-3 (Rs.15600-39100 in Grade Pay Rs.6600/-). Material concealment or misrepresentation, while applying for deputation was indeed a serious issue. Moreover, there was some evidence of malfeasance against the Petitioner and thus a conscious decision was taken to repatriate the Petitioner. It is settled law that deputation is not a matter of right albeit premature repatriation must be based on sound and plausible reasoning and should not be an act of arbitrariness. Petitioner has failed to make out a case that the decision to repatriate him is illegal or arbitrary.
