6. That on _________the Petitioner received a notice from Respondent No. 2 to show cause why he should not be dismissed from service. 

7. That the aforesaid enquiry was illegal and ultra vires. Respondent No. 2 had no jurisdiction to take into consideration the said enquiry or pass any order on the basis thereof. The so-called inquiry was held by a person not duly authorised to do so. 

8. The holding of a departmental inquiry by a Superintendent of Police is a condition precedent, a fact which must exist before Respondent No. 2 can assume jurisdiction or authority for the purpose of passing the final order of dismissal under Rule _________of _________ against the Petitioner. 

It is therefore, most respectfully prayed that a writ direction or order in the nature of prohibition be issued to the respondents prohibiting them from proceeding further with the disciplinary proceedings on the basis of the enquiry report of Respondent No. 3.
