SED sacks 2 more teachers

“The teacher was provided opportunities by the DDO concerned to resume his duties which he failed to avail. The teacher was provided another opportunity to be heard and was directed to present himself before the Directorate along with a statement of defense within seven days from the date of issuance of the notice,” the order reads. “Neither did the teacher present himself before this Directorate nor responded to the notices, indicating thereby that he is not interested to work in this department.”

The issue was placed before the designated committee in its meeting held on December 29, 2020.

“After examining the case the committee decided that the process for termination of services under Article 128 J&K CSR be initiated against the teacher,” the order reads.

Referring to the government regulations, DSEK in its order said that remaining unauthorisedly absent from duties attracts action as warranted in terms of Article 113 and Article 128 of J&K Civil Services Rules (Volume 1) of 1956.

“After five years of continuous absence on leave, an officer is considered to be an out-of-state employee. Absence without leave or after the end of leave involves loss of appointment,” the DSEK order reads.

“Abdul Majeed Khan is hereby removed from the government service in terms of Article 128 of J&K Civil Services Rules (Volume 1) of 1956 and rule 30 (vii) of J&KCCA rules 1956,” it said.
