The Appellants decided not to proceed further and hold a detailed inquiry to prove the misconduct of Respondent No.1. However, the service of Respondent No.1 was terminated at the end of the period of probation which cannot be said punitive. Therefore, the Order dated 31st December, 2008 is an order of termination simpliciter. In view of the above it cannot be said that misconduct was the foundation for the order of termination.
