Anantnag: After dismissing a teacher from his services in Kupwara, the Jammu & Kashmir administration sacked two other government employees on Monday without any formal enquiry.

The two dismissed employees include Nazir Ahmed Wani, a revenue officer from Pulwama and Abdul Bari Naik, assistant professor in Udhampur.

All the three were dismissed from services under the recently invoked Article 311 of the Constitution in the "interest of the security of the state."

Separate orders issued by the General Administration Department in this regard said that the Lieutenant Governor has been satisfied that the decision had been taken "in the interest of the state". The order added that it was not expedient to hold any enquiry in the cases.

The administration had on May 1 dismissed Idrees Jan, a teacher from Kupwara from service and said that his "activities warranted such a decision".
