Judgment text as reported

MUHAMMAD TARIQ KHAN VS The NATIONAL BANK OF PAKISTAN S.11---National Bank of Pakistan (Staff) Service Rules, 2021, R.2---Constitution of Pakistan, Art. 199---Jurisdiction of High Court---Non-statutory rules of service---Dismissal from service---Petitioners were employees of National Bank of Pakistan who were proceeded departmentally and were dismissed from service---Though jurisdiction of High Court under Art. 199 of the "Constitution" to some extent is limited with respect to the orders ensuing from the departmental proceedings determining the guilt or otherwise of an employee but High Court being custodian of the rights of citizens cannot shut its eyes when patent illegalities are floating on the surface of the record---Right of earning is right to life and no one can be allowed to take away such right in a clandestine manner---Petitioners were proceeded against in a non-transparent and haphazard manner in the departmental proceedings, which culminated into their dismissal from service---Impugned orders were apparently suffering from patent illegalities and were against the principles of natural justice---Petitions were allowed and as a sequel, the petitioners were reinstated in service with all permissible back benefits.
