It has also been proved that the official has absented himself unauthorisely on 18-10-2015 which is an act of indiscipline as per Rule 208 (g) of Police Rule J & K. Rule 208 (g) of Police Rule J & K read as "Absence without leave or after the end of leave involves loss of appointment except in case of ill health when the absen- tee must produce the certificate of the Medical Officer". Whereas, almost 2 years and 11 months have passed since the departmental enquiry was initiated against him but the delinquent official is still running absent and avoiding the enquiry which has forced the undersigned to take ex-partie decision. Whereas on the perusal service record, it has been found that the delinquent official is habitual of absenteeism and in consequence of which he has earned the below mentioned punishments:- 1. Annual increment forfeiture for one year = 02 times 2. Annual increment stoppage for one year = 02 times 3. Censure = 05 times 4. Diesnon = 04 times (316 days) Therefore, after giving thoughtful consideration to pros and cons of the enquiry and paying due consideration to the regulations contained in the Police Manual, I am constrained to take affirm view about the indiscipline exhibited by the delinquent official. In addition to the commission of service misconduct, the delinquent official has resorted to insubordination without caring for the rules and norms of a disciplined organization like J & K Police and deserves to be dealt with under Law/Rules and regulations of the Department. Keeping him in the organization will badly affect the discipline of the organization which is considered to be a law enforcing agency of the state. If the delinquent official is kept on the Roll of the department it will tarnish the image of the organization as a whole and will have a bad impact on the force. In view of the above facts, it is ordered that the delinquent official constable Daya Krishan No. 888/Ktr PID No.EXJ-986874 of District Police Kishtwar is hereby "removed" from service and he is struck off from the roll of District Police Kishtwar w.e.f 18-10-2015, the date he absented himself un-authorisely and the period of his un-authorised absence w.e.f 18- 10-2015 to till date is treated as Diesnon on the principle of NO WORK NO PAY. The delinquent official will deposit all uniform/Govt. articles in District store DPLKishtwar forthwith, failing which action as warranted under law shall be taken against him.
