ORDER :

Leave granted.

2. The respondent - writ petitioner while serving as Assistant General Manager of the Canara Bank superannuated on 31st May, 2007. After his retirement, a disciplinary proceeding was initiated against him by a charge-memo dated 28th June, 2007. Prior to the above, he was placed under suspension on 23rd November, 2006 and as it appears from the materials on record there were correspondences exchanged by and between the Authorities of the Bank with regard to the initiation of a disciplinary proceeding against the respondent-writ petitioner. However, nothing appears to have come out of the said exercise and the respondent - writ petitioner superannuated, as noticed above, whereafter a charge-sheet was served upon him. Aggrieved by the departmental proceeding initiated, the respondent - writ petitioner moved the High Court of Madras under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The learned single judge hearing the writ petition allowed the same and quashed the proceedings initiated against the respondent - writ petitioner. The said order was affirmed in the Writ Appeal filed by the Bank. Aggrieved, the present appeal in question has been lodged before this Court
