| Decision |
The appeal filed by Syed Zaheerul Hasnain Zaidi is dismissed as it has been found to be time-barred and lacking in merit. The appellant had previously opted for permanent absorption in the Local Council Service without claiming benefits from his past service. His resignation from his previous post was accepted, and he cannot now claim a lien. The appeal was filed well after the stipulated 30-day period following the Chief Secretary's rejection of his appeal. Therefore, the tribunal upholds the decision of the Chief Secretary and dismisses the appeal. |
| Summary |
In the case of Syed Zaheerul Hasnain Zaidi vs. Secretary to Government of Punjab, the issue revolves around the appellant's appeal against his absorption in the Local Council Service after resigning from his previous position. The case highlights the concepts of lien and permanent absorption within civil services, emphasizing the implications of the appellant's previous choices. The tribunal ruled that the appellant's prior agreement not to claim benefits from his past service, along with the acceptance of his resignation, precludes him from seeking reinstatement or claiming a lien. The decision underscores the importance of adherence to procedural timelines in appeals, as the appellant's case was found to be time-barred. This ruling serves as a precedent for similar cases involving civil servants and their rights concerning absorption and resignation. |
