appointing authority means ‘Board’ or the persons empowered by the
‘Board’ to appoint any person to certain post. Section 7 of the Act,
2017 stipulates constitution of the ‘Board’ with total 11 members. But
the decision of the dismissal order of the petitioner was taken by 4(four)
members of the ‘Board’ though Section 9(3) of the Act, 2017 provides:
“(৩) বোর্ডের সভার কোরামের
জন্য উহার মোট সদস্য সংখ্যার
অন্যূন অর্ধেক সদস্যের
উপস্থিতির প্রয়োজন হইবে, তবে
মুলতবি সভার ক্ষেত্রে কোন
কোরামের প্রয়োজন হইবে না।”
Appellate Division is in agreement with the findings of the High Court
Division that the impugned order of dismissal cannot be treated as
‘Board’ decision due to quorum non-judice. ––The High Court
Division also found from record that the inquiry officer stated in his
report that he took some evidence of some officers of the institute but
nowhere in that report it was mentioned that the examination of those
persons was held in presence of the petitioner or the petitioner was given
any opportunity to cross-examine them.
The writ-petitioner had already retired from service, Appellate Division
finds rationality in the prayer of the learned Advocate for the respondent
no.1 regarding modification of the direction in the impugned judgment and
order. “The respondents are directed to pay the petitioner’s arrear
salary and allowances as the Deputy Director (Administration) in the
Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Joydebpur, Gazipur in
accordance with the service Rule of the Bangladesh Agricultural Research
Institute (Officer and Employee) Service Regulations, 2011 within 3(three)
months from the date of receipt a copy of this judgment and order.”
