Disciplinary Action against Government Servants and its Remedies (Print On Demand)

This is a comprehensive, practical book dealing with such issues as dismissal, discharge, removal, suspension, reduction in rank, retrenchment, compulsory retirement, superannuation and resignation, etc., relating to Government Servants. The book retains its earlier, well-appreciated arrangement. Chapter V of the book deals with Appointment, Seniority and Promotion, and the laws relating to it has been widely discussed as they constitute an important aspect of employment. The last chapter on remedies has been thoroughly revised and enlarged particularly in view of the establishment of Central and State Tribunals.

The remedies available to an employee have been given a detailed, special treatment and all his rights have been explained clearly.

The subject of departmental enquiry has been dealt with comprehensively and the views of the courts on various issues have been given. The constitutional safeguards available to the government servant have also been explained. This popular work has always been in great demand.

Reviews

In the book under review, the exposition of the law endeavours to be clear and accurate, sparing no pains to tackle every question likely to arise under the Act. The author has taken note of recent decisions and incorporated them, wherever necessary, throughout the book. Providing as it does, a comprehensive and up-to-date commentary on the subject, Srivastava's book remains a very selective choice for the legal profession. In sum, it is a proud and prestigious possession for any Judge or practitioner having anything to do with service law.
