,
He was dismissed from his job after serious allegations in 1983. Pension was also stopped. Now the High Court has given him a clean chit. They are asking to file a petition against the Education Department to challenge the dismissal without giving notice.
There were also agents in teacher and post office Mankaram, posted at government school Ratera, Betul, was employed in 1972. He also worked as an agent in the post office along with teaching children, in which he used to get commission. Due to the post office away, Manakaram used to take money from the villagers and submit it to the post office once a week.
In 1984, Kanhaiya Sahu, a farmer of Ratera village, was given Rs 3,596 to deposit Rs. Two days later, Kanhaiya needed money, then he reached the post office to withdraw money, where it was found that his money had not been deposited.
his He complained to the police station. Betul police registered a case against Mankaram under Section 409 of the IPC. The case was heard in the sessions court on 28 January 1993, where the court sentenced him to ‘until the court gets up’. Manakaram challenged this order in the ADJ Court. The ADJ Court held a hearing in September 2000 and kept the sentence given by the sessions court unchanged.
Challenge in Madhya Pradesh High Court in 2000 Manakaram did not accept the punishment from Betul Sessions and ADG court and challenged the Madhya Pradesh High Court in 2000. Manakaram’s petition was heard in 2025. The petitioner’s counsel Mohan Sharma told the court that there was no material or evidence on the record to convict the applicant.
The lawyer argued that the trial court has convicted the applicant only on the basis that he did not offer the amount received for the post office in the passbook and register. The advocate told the court that the petitioner was a teacher, he did not have a criminal mood. The decision of the trial court is not correct.
Used to deposit money in the post office simultaneously Manakaram used to collect money from customers throughout the week and then deposited in the post office on Saturday at the end of the week. Farmer Kanhaiya Sahu gave money to Mankaram on Tuesday and then when he arrived to withdraw money on Thursday, there was no entry of Rs 3596 in the account, due to which he lodged a complaint of embezzlement against Manakram in Kotwali police station, like every time, at the end of the week, Manakaram deposited full money on Saturday, but till then the police had registered a case and started investigation.
FIR was fired when he got an FIR As soon as the FIR was registered with the police, the Education Department dismissed Manakaram from the post of Primary Teacher in 1986, considering the court sentence as the basis. At that time Manakaram was about 44 years old and had a 15 -year job experience. They were facing the sentence of a crime that they had not done. After leaving the job, his post office agent also stopped. The Education Department not only dismissed them, but did not even give them pension.
The case was pending in 23 years High Court Betul resident Mankaram challenged the order of the District Court in the High Court in the year 2000, since then the case was pending till 2023. In 2023, Advocate Mohan Sharma started advocating the case of Mankaram once again. Justice MS Bhatti of Madhya Pradesh High Court has rejected all the orders of the lower courts and freed Mankaram Suryavanshi.
Petition will be filed against the education department Mankaram’s advocate Mohan Sharma says that he fought a legal battle for 42 years, in which he has won. The Education Department had stopped their funds, pension and graduation, separating the petitioner from the job with wrong arguments. So now when the decision of the High Court has come in favor of Mankaram, he will ask for complete compensation from the Education Department.
