The correct answer is D. All of the above.
A writ petition is a judicial remedy that can be used to challenge a government action. In the context of termination of an agency with public authority or a public body, a writ petition may be filed if the termination is unreasonable, arbitrary, or unconscionable.
An unreasonable termination is one that is not based on a legitimate reason. For example, if an employee is terminated for no reason, or for a reason that is not related to their job performance, the termination may be considered unreasonable.
An arbitrary termination is one that is made without any consideration of the employee’s rights or interests. For example, if an employee is terminated because they complained about workplace discrimination, the termination may be considered arbitrary.
An unconscionable termination is one that is made in bad faith, or with the intent to harm the employee. For example, if an employee is terminated because they are about to file a lawsuit against the employer, the termination may be considered unconscionable.
If a writ petition is filed, the court will review the termination and determine whether it was reasonable, arbitrary, or unconscionable. If the court finds that the termination was not justified, it may order the employer to reinstate the employee or provide other relief.
