ANIL KSHETARPAL, J.:
1. With the consent of learned counsel for the parties, W.P.(C)
6699/2018 and W.P.(C) 14025/2025, which involve an identical
question of law concerning the competence of the disciplinary
authority in respect of officers borne on the AGMUT (Arunachal
Pradesh, Goa, Mizoram and Union Territories) Joint Cadre of the
Indian Administrative Service [hereinafter referred to as „IAS‟], were
heard together and are being disposed of by this common judgment.
2. The singular and determinative issue which arises for
consideration in the present Petitions is whether the Ministry of Home
Affairs acting as a delegatee of the Joint Cadre Authority, was
competent in law to initiate disciplinary proceedings and impose
penalty upon a member of the IAS borne on the AGMUT Joint Cadre?
