FALAK SHER, J.- Resume of the necessary facts for resolving the present controversy as divulged from the record are that Mehboob Elahi, respondent, having been appointed as Cashier on 27.3.1990 on six months probation, was confirmed in service by petitioner No.1 which was terminated by the latter on 1.6.1991, legality whereof was successfully questioned by the respondent by virtjue of grievance petition contemplated by section 25-A of the Industrial Relations Ordinance, 1969 and was reinstated in service with back benefits on 18.2.1992 by the learned Presiding Officer, Punjab Labour Court No.4, Faisalabad on the ground that neither any show cause notice nor the disciplinary proceedings contemplated by the National Bank of Pakistan Staff Service Rules, 1980 preceded the termination order and in appeal was affirmed vide the impugned order dated 19.5.1992 by the learned Punjab Labour Appellate Tribunal; feeling aggrieved thereby, present constitutional petition was recoursed contending that the appointment was irregular for non- relaxation of the age limit and was secured through political pressure.
2. Be that as it may, petitioner, No.1 being the competent authority, admittedly not only failed to apprise the authorities concerned as to the alleged shortcoming but also confirmed the respondent's appointment upon successful completion of the probation period and subsequently acted purely mechanically abdicating his discretion in terminating the respondent's services without application of independent mind, therefore, blameworthiness, if any, is patently ascribable to the petitioner being highly paid parasite on the national exchequer, thus can't be allowed to reprobate the same in this extraordinary jurisdiction; consequently, on this short ground alone, the petition is hereby dismissed in limine.
