MUNIR A. SHEIKH, J.- Leave is sought against the judgment dated 3.3.2001 of the Federal Service Tribunal, Karachi through which appeal filed by respondent No. 1 against the order of his termination from service, was accepted and he has been ordered to be reinstated in service with all back benefits.
2. The order of termination of service of respondent No. 1 has been set aside by the Tribunal on the ground firstly that decision of the Cabinet Division was not followed in letter and spirit and further that if there was any need to decrease the strength of the employees on account of economy drive, the respondent had been discriminated against inasmuch as there was element of pick and choose, for, after termination of his services, as many as 112 persons were further employed.
3. There is no force in the argument of learned counsel for the petitioners that order of termination of service of respondent No. 1 was passed under the Service Rules framed by the Board of petitioner's Corporation and not on 'the charge of corruption, therefore, it was a case of termination simpliciter.
4. The judgment of the Tribunal does not suffer from any legal infirmity, therefore, this petition- being meritless is hereby dismissed and leave refused.
