Detailed headnote1 paragraphs

High Court of Karnataka (bench particulars illegible). The petitioner called in question an order of a Tribunal not considering his request to stay the operation of an order of suspension, contending that the suspension order was unsustainable, that previous enquiry reports indicated no fault on his behalf, and that the Tribunal ought to have considered the interim order. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submitted that, as matters were being taken up only once a week, there may be delay in disposal. Noting that the order challenged was one of suspension and that the matter required decision on merits or consideration of the interim order sought, the Court disposed of the petition with an order directing the Tribunal to endeavour disposal of the matter, and dispensed with notice to respondent Nos. 2 and 1 in light of that direction for expeditious disposal.
