Whether government can reject recommendation of high court?

High Court sending recommendation to retire an officer to the State Government. In reality the recommendation is without any material. Whether the State Government can seek clarifications and ask for record or material on the basis of which the recommendation had been sent?

State being employer of such employee has every right to get clarification from High Court about the impugned order prior to its execution.

Is there any case law?

Cryptic queries rouse irrelevant answers. Pl. put the facts and one may opine. Normally, courts do not make such recommendations. if the recommendations made as observation in a proceeding before court, it has to be followd. Pl. brief the facts.

Yes, Government can reject the recommendation of SC/HC if it violate the Constitution or any other law enforced in the territory AND recommendation is a kind of suggestion and government is not obliged to follow it unless it is in the interest of people at large.

Dear Friend,

 

There is a difference between recommendation and directions. Directions are mandate. Recommendations can be conveniently overlooked.
