| Decision |
The Tribunal found that the adverse remarks recorded against Ch. Muhammad Ayub, Assistant Excise and Taxation Officer, were vague and contradictory. The remarks stated that there were 'no big seizure/detection during the period' but did not provide sufficient facts to substantiate these claims. The appellant demonstrated that his performance was significantly better than that of his predecessor, achieving higher recoveries and detections. Consequently, the Tribunal expunged the adverse remarks from the record, emphasizing that the good work done by the appellant should have been recognized by his superiors. |
| Summary |
In the case of Ch. Muhammad Ayub vs. Secretary to Government QF Punjab, Excise and Taxation Department, the Service Tribunal addressed an appeal under the Punjab Service Tribunals Act regarding adverse remarks made against the appellant. The appellant contested the remarks, stating that they were baseless and did not reflect his actual performance. The Tribunal examined the evidence provided, including comparative figures of seizures and tax recoveries, which indicated that the appellant's performance during his tenure was superior to that of his predecessor. The Tribunal concluded that the remarks were unjustified and ordered their expungement. This case highlights the importance of accurate performance evaluations in public service and the need for due process in recording adverse remarks against officials. |
