Decision The appeal filed by Muhammad Anwar Hussain Chauhan against the orders of the Deputy Registrar Co-operative Societies Bahawalpur and the Registrar Co-operative Societies Punjab was dismissed. The court found that the appellant had wilfully absented himself from duty and had submitted his leave applications after the leave period had expired, which was considered an attempt to evade the possibility of a second medical opinion. The court upheld the penalties imposed for misconduct, including removal from service, as the appellant's conduct was found to be unsatisfactory and his employment was temporary, allowing for termination without notice.
