Judgment & Decree

ALI HUSSAIN QAZILBASH, J.‑‑This is a petition for leave to appeal from the order of the Punjab Service Tribunal dated 11‑10‑1983.

2. In this petition the petitioner has questioned certain adverse remarks given to him by his superiors. His representation before the Additional Chief Secretary was rejected and his appeal before the Tribunal also met the same fate.

3. We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and have gone through the judgment of the learned Tribunal. The case of the petitioner was considered by the Tribunal and his prayer for expunction was repelled in the following times: "We have now to assess the comments of the Commissioner, keeping in view the entire background of the case and it would not be possible for us to hold that all the persons at the level of Commissioners had arraigned against the appellant at various times so as to mar his career. It will be preposterous to accept such like proposition. In the light of the above circumstances and analysis so made by us keeping in view the chequered record of service of the appellant, we do not feel any justification to set aside the order of the Additional Chief Secretary (respondent), or to take a different view than the Commissioner Mr. H. A R. Pasha, so expressed by him in his detailed comments on the record."

4. We have also examined the case in the light of the arguments of the learned counsel for the petitioner and we find no merit in the petition in that no question of law has been raised in this case. The petition is dismissed. M.B.A./S‑289/S Petition dismissed
