4100/2025 Const. P. Abbas Ali (Petitioner) V/S The Registrar Federal Urdu University (Respondent)
Sindh High Court
Bench: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Zulfiqar Ali Sangi
Order Date: 14-MAY-26
In the totality of circumstances, this Court is of the considered view that the impugned order dated 04.03.2025 suffers from procedural impropriety, non-application of mind, and failure to observe the constitutional and statutory obligations relating to reasonable accommodation of a disabled employee. The Respondent University failed to establish through cogent and legally sustainable material that the Petitioner had become wholly incapable of performing any useful service or that no alternate placement or accommodation was possible. The impugned action, therefore, appears disproportionate, arbitrary, and inconsistent with the constitutional guarantees of dignity, equality, and protection against discrimination. Consequently, the impugned order dated 04.03.2025 is declared to be without lawful authority and of no legal effect and is hereby set aside. The Respondent University is directed to reinstate the Petitioner in service forthwith, with continuity of service and all consequential service benefits. The Respondent University shall further examine and provide reasonable accommodation or adjustment against a suitable post compatible with the Petitioner???s medical condition strictly in accordance with the law, and he shall not be harassed by the officials of the Respondent University due to his medical condition, i.e., visual impairment. 16. This petition is allowed in the above terms. All pending applications stand disposed of.Full judgment text for this case is not yet available on Pakistan Law Reports.
