Judgment text as reported

Syed FARRUKH GHANI VS BANK OF PUNJAB through Chairman S.20 & O.VII, R.10---Suits to be instituted where defendants reside or cause of action arises---Return of plaint---Scope---Dismissal from service---Territorial jurisdiction---Plaintiff through the instant suit challenged his dismissal from service---Validity---Pursuant to enquiry proceedings, the plaintiff had "surrendered" before the enquiry committee whereby enquiry was conducted and the enquiry was admittedly beyond the territorial limits and jurisdiction of the High Court and hence the ultimate order---All the defendants arrayed in the memo of plaint hailed from District 'L'---Jurisdiction could not be conferred on mere desire of the plaintiff who claimed to have received the information of his dismissal at District 'K', where he resided---It was the ultimate cause which gave birth to a jurisdiction under normal circumstances and that was dismissal at District 'L' where he surrendered---Since the court lacked territorial jurisdiction, therefore, the plaint was returned with the observation that the plaintiff might pursue his remedy before the court/forum having jurisdiction.
