1) disciplinary inquiry was ordered while you were in service

2) the order of commissioner imposing penalty of Rs 50000 has to be complied with inspite of you having retired

3) your remedy is to file appeal against order

Even after retirement the public servant can be penalized under RTI Act for the acts he did while he was in service. The amount can be recovered from his pension.

I was given certificate on my retirement day that there is no inquiry pending or proposed against me. In spite of above situation can such monitory punishment be given when I was not in service but retired. Pl advise .Reg

Though you have been certified that no inquiry pending on the date of retirement, this punishment was for the inquiry already initiated and concluded thereon, hence you have the opportunity only to prefer an appeal against this inquiry result with the higher authority or to file a writ petition before high court seeking to quash the findings and set aside the decree awarded by the inquiry committee.

You may decide accordingly after consulting a local advocate in this regard.

PL provide court verdicts or GR nos for support.

The court verdicts in this regard may be sought from yor own advocate or by engaging the services of any other advocate.
