Dear friends,
As per Rule 23 of CCS(CCA) Rules 1965 Appeal is a statutory right applied against an order of suspension and an order imposing any of the penalties specified in Rule 11. It should be within 45 days from the date of punishment order communicated to the delinquent official. The appeal should be addressed to the appellate authority directly with all the documents and with a copy to the authority which made the order appealed against.
Appeal once made can not be withdrawn.
A disciplinary authority after making an order of punishment should not be a appellate authority when he subsequently promoted to the higher post having the power of appellate authority, for the order that he made earlier.
But if an appellate authority which had given a direction to his subordinate disciplinary authority to take disciplinary action like placing an official under suspension will not debar him from acting as an appellate authority in his case. This is confirmed in rule 132 of Postal manual Vol III.
The appellate authority order may be confirming, enhancing, reducing, or setting aside the penalty imposed.
The order of appellate authority is to be made effect through the authority which made the order appealed against.
Tenkasi . with loving greetings
