File No.CIC/LS/C/2010/000050

Appellant : Shri Desai Siddhartha K. Parulbhai

Public Authority : Record Office, , .

Date of Hearing : 17.06.2010

Date of Decision : 17.06.2010

FACTS :

The matter is called for hearing today dated 17.06.2010. Appellant not present. The Public Authority is represented by Hav. Dhanraj Kumar. He submits a written representation dated 15.6.2010 which is taken on record. As per the representation, the appellant was discharged from the Army in 2007 on his own request. While in service, he was reprimanded for using unfair means in an examination. He divorced first wife Smt. Bhavana Desai and took Smt. Sonal as his second wife. A daughter named Hiral was born out of this wedlock. The note also says that the appellant had married Sonal by impersonating as Captain in the Army, whereas, actually, he was only a soldier.

2. The appellant has been making protracted correspondence with the Public Authority. We also spoke to Sub. Subhash Chandra on telephone who informed that the appellant wants to nominate his daughter Hiral in the pension papers but this cannot be done until he obtains divorce from his second wife Sonal. Sub Subhash Chandra also informs that the Public Authority has been regularly sending replies to the communications received from the appellant, from time to time.

DECISION

3. The appellant is not present before the Commission to ventilate his real grievances, if any. Nor has he specified any specific information that he wishes to obtain through the instrumentality of this Commission. In the absence of any specific relief sought from the Commission, we are constrained to dismiss the appeal. Needless to say, it is for the Army Authorities to address the genuine grievances, if any, of the appellant, as per administrative norms, rules and regulations.
