The Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) has rapped the DTC for terminating
the services of a driver on medical grounds, though he had performed the job
for over 23 years with the same disability.
The CAT wondered how the corporation could terminate the services of Munshi
Lal who had a clean track record despite driving the vehicle without an
index finger.
"It is very strange that the driver whose injured index finger (which was
amputated) has not come in the way of efficient discharge of duties from
1982 to 2005 for which there is no complaint...on record... yet on the same
alleged disability holding him unfit to perform duty on re-employment upto
60 years, when the position has not been altered, the DTC has not acted
fairly," the Tribunal said.
