Versus
Secretary to Government, Public Works Department – Respondent
1. The petitioner has preferred the instant Writ of Certiorarified Mandamus praying for passing of an order by this Court in calling for the records in the impugned orders in G.O.(D)No.135, PWD (E1), dated 27.03.2012 and to quash the same. Further, he has sought for passing of an order by this Court in directing the respondents, more particularly, the first respondent to retain his name in the appropriate place in the panel for promotion of Assistant Executive Engineer (without over looking him) to be released soon.
2. According to the petitioner, while he was serving in Government Stanley Hospital, each and every works contract reached to the level of Rs.50,000/- only. As such the expenditure to be arrived at was below Rs. 50,000/-. This was as per instruction of his immediate superior viz., the Dean of the Government Stanley Hospital, Chennai. Further, he cannot act against their dictum. However, the second respondent/Engineer in Chief (buildings), Chief Engineer (Buildings), Chennai Region and Chief Engineer (General), P.W.D., Chennai misunderstood this works contract, as if the petitioner splitted up the works to see that it is limited only upto an extend of Rs.50,000/-
