In government service promotion disputes, courts examine whether the administrative authority has followed proper procedures and applied lawful considerations. When a show cause notice is issued but no disciplinary proceedings are initiated, the mere issuance of such notice cannot be a valid ground for denying promotion. The principle of 'merit comes seniority' requires that candidates be assessed on merit while respecting their seniority, and administrative authorities must exercise their discretion fairly and impartially. Courts may interfere when promotion decisions are arbitrary, discriminatory, or based on unlawful considerations.

>> In response to paragraph petition the answering respondent summit the petitioner was initially appointed assistant sub inspector. Upon abolition of the post he was redesated as sub inspector of this does not amount to promotion since there exist no record supporting petitioner's claim for such promotion. Furthermore, the petitioner was issued a shocker's notice dated 38, 2019 under office order number such and such for negligence of duty signifying irresponsibility in the performance of his assigned duties in violation of official norms and direction. Moreover, the petitioner failed to justify the forced shock's notice which clearly indicates his irresponsibility. Since the petitioner has come before the court with ulterior motive, the rate petition is liable to be dismissed on the ground alone. Further the principle of merit come seniority requests that merit be established which the petitioner is found lacking due to such negligence and irregularity. Now this has been annexed at an extra am if I can take my lot to this. Yes A at page 9.

Now this is my lord by his superior immediate superior superintendent revoid district. Now similarly my lord for other respondent also a recommendation came by his and similar line my lord. Now your lash will kindly take up my rejoinder.
My rejoinder.
Now my lord they have said made one statement that I was never promoted to the post of sub inspector of taxes that is wrong my lord so I have controverted it and I have annexed the necessary order my lord by which I was promoted 29th August 2014 at page 12 and one that's lo >> of my rejoinder >> page >> page 12 rejoinder to the affidate file by hc 1 4.
>> Which page?
>> Page 12.
>> Yes.
>> Yes ma'am. I'll just read it. 12 hours.
The executive kasil district council is pleased to promote the following within the taxation department. I am at two.
I have been promoted as sub inspector.
So they are saying that I was never promoted. This is wrong. Why they made this kind of statement unable to understand somebody now next page 13 the reply to the shops.
Well this is a handwritten copy.
>> Yeah refer 2014 order >> 2014 because I was promoted to the post of sub in I enter in 2003 as assistant inspector. In 2014 I made a statement I was promoted to the post of sub inspector of taxation. In their effective they say he was never promoted. In fact, assistant post of assistant inspector was abolished and he was redesated as sub inspector of track.
That is wrong. I was promoted my this is the order 2014. I was promoted to the post of sub inspector of taxation.
>> Yes.
>> Now my lord will come my shoo's reply which they are relying at page 13. My lord this is the handwritten original gerroscopy of the original. The type copies is in the next speech.
>> Yes, my lord. With due respect in reply to the mention, I am to inform you that on such I was on official duty inspection at Barney Hut and the adjoining areas along with the inspector concerned along with inspection. This is dated 4th September. I file it. They have not initiated any disciplinary proceedings. My lord, now could they have taken into consideration as you have lost you have seen the reason not promoting me shock? Can shos become a ground my shos has not led to any disciplinary action.
Now my lord on the last occasion your law is these are the facts my lord. So my basic thing merit comes seniority we are not dis when it comes to merit comes seniority my lord it is almost like a selection process my lord here the transparency comparative assessment has to be maintained and they are saying my lord we could not consider because of the shock. So this is not a consideration at all. Now I have last occasion I have submitted a compilation with relevant judgments should be there.
>> Yes.
>> This council I have given.
>> Yes. Yes.
This is the one.
Yes my lord facts I will not say your lordship only the judgment my lord relevant judgments >> my lord from page six my the judgment I am relying on from page six or should you kindly look into page six >> 19 page six of my written compilation >> 194C >> yes well I just while marriage is criteria selection become wider and can be abused with less difficulty. Now this is 1973 to SS 386 my lord relevant paragraph is paragraph 20.
>> Yes.
>> It is true. It is true that where merit which is difficult to judge is laid down as sole test for promotion, the power of selection become wider and they can be abused with less difficulty. But the but the uh machinery provided for preparation of celestialist for promotion to all India services so as to ensure impartiality cannot be assumed to so operate as to produce unjust result.
The wider the power entrusted to an administrative authority more should be the consciousness of responsibility on its parts for their due discharge fairly and impartially. The presumption is that the authority concerned will discharge its obligation with full realization and its implication and honesty. We have however to determine here whether the selection committee and the union public service perform their function on a correct interpretation and the relevant regulation and not whether they acted honestly about we entertain doubt. So here is a case my lord they are admitting you cannot be considered because of a shos my lord my humble submission my lord this is not a consideration at all.
Now my lord if I can take my lords to the next judgment I have relied 1991 4 16 no m page 16 and 17 page 45 and 46 Six par 16 and 17 my lord has got it.
Yes, that is basically a case my lord when the pendency of a my lord investigation disciplinary that cannot be a reason my lord refused that seal cover and all now they are saying this my lord is a my trouble reading it and here only a shock which has not lead to any investigation that become a ground my lord for rejection so this is basically my 16 and 17 my lord then even then if I can read on 17 mil there is no doubt that there is seeming contradiction between the two conclusion but read harmoniously and that it is the full bench has intended the two conclusion can be reconciled with each other >> 16 17 >> 17 I'm reading the conclusion of one should be read to mean that the promotion cannot be withheld merely because some disciplinary criminal proceeding are presenting against the employee to deny the s benefit they must be at the relevant time pending at the stage when the charge memo charit has already been issued to the employee this read there is no incon judgment now here the court is clarifying even pendency of A disciplinary proceeding cannot be a reason to withheld.
>> Yes.
>> Now here what happened? Only a shock. A shock which has not led to even a disciplinary procedure filed in 2019.
Now that cannot be a ground to refuse me promotion when I am the senior most.
Now my lord the other judgment.
>> All right. Now my 20076 SCS right to be considered for promotion bring within its perview an effective purposeful and meaningful considerations that is at page number 63 11 and 14. This is very relevant my lord the consideration should be my lawful consideration. If we are relying on a shock cause which we are not supposed to and then say you have been considered this is no consideration pending against me. So how you could have taken into consideration the shock costs.
Now my lord next judgment is your law ship 20079 SSC state and its instrumentally bound to act fairly reasonably while considering the promotion of an employee. Mere allegation against an employee would not justify keeping valuable rights to here.
Exactly. Some allegation was brought by the shockers minor. That is at page 70.
>> Par the first appellent in coldfield are state within its meaning of article 12 of the constitution. Their action must therefore satisfy the test of reasonableness and fair. Although an employee of a state is not entitled to promotion to a higher post as a matter of right. He is entitled to be considered therefore in terms of article 16 of the constitution of India. A right of promotion can be withheld or kept in evidence only in terms of the varied rules. Rules operating in the field do not provide that only because some allegation has been made as against an officer of the company. The same would itself justify keeping a valuable right to be considered for promotion of an employee. In events when the question of the nature comes up for consideration before a superior court the extent rule operating the field must necessarily be constituted in the light of the constitutional scheme of equality. Now here admittedly there admittedly because of the shock cause my lord now the next decision is my lord I am relying on my lord is 2008 8 ssc 725 >> but regarding >> regarding adverse entries no even there is no I don't think they maintain a service district also and even if there is something there cannot be anything adverse on the basis of a shock also there is no disciplinary process there was never commun And my lord where is JT that okay then 2010 my lord that is on delay wrong promotion challenging without delay continuation in the post of promotion would not run I anticipate they will come up now for last 2 years we are holding the position my lord I immediately came before the court my lord and the way I have been deprived I am the senior most no doubt it is on the basis of merit come seniority but even in the merit come seniority my lord you will have to maintain some kind of transparency where is the transparency you are admitting there is a shock and this is the reason you are I was denied the promotions so my lord this decision my lord it's say my lord delay and for long time the incumbent illegally holding the post that cannot be a ground to refuse the issuance of the rate that is there and my lord interestingly in respect of district grounds my lord I have come across a decision my lord that is then paragraph Then why it's not telling it's not telling that paragraph 9 this is very important decision 20052 GT that is in relation to some district council of Assam regarding promotion lie autonomous paragraph 9 this paragraph 9 somehow my in my compilation It is missing paragraph 9. Under article 16 of the constitution, the right to be considered for permission is fundamental right. It is not the mere consideration for promotion that is important but consideration must be fair according to established principle governing service judic quotes will not interfere with the assessment made by the DVC unless agreve officer establishes the non-promotion was banned according to witness principle or malafid by witness principle it means irrationally unreasonleness and that the decision is so outrageous in defiance of logic or accepted moral standard that no sens sensible person who had applied his mind to the question to be decided would have arrived. In other words, the decision impug is such that no authority properly directing himself on the relevant law and acting reasonably could have reached it. My this is very this is outrageous my what happened they are very very categorically saying there is a shock I have finally reply my lord that it has not led to anything. So my lord this is a case my lord call for interference my lord I'm the senior most my lord the way I have been deprived your lordships my lord that is very very unfair my >> rules >> rules my lord lship 15 disciples and rules 15 15 is there >> is the merit comes in that I am not disputing your laws >> what doesn't speak any apart from what >> I'll just read the entire rule at page 26 I don't know my one I am holding at page 26 >> of this compilation.
>> No, no, it is not in the compilation.
>> So, this is the one given by you last time.
>> No, I have given that. Yes, I have given 26 my 15. My lord, you'll come to 15.
>> Page 26 my lord >> of this compilation.
Oh, >> I have given a extra copy of this. This is not in the compilation. Compilation >> we have submitted separately not in the compilation.
something can rule >> 14 rule 16 >> rule 15 can one second >> yes you can do this what's different 15 but if I can read 15 Promotion to any service great post shall be made ordinarily on the basis of merit comes inity and the careful examination of character roles. Such report called for suitability of the eligible promotion other records in cases of promotion in selection force administrative technical merit to be taken as a sole criteria. So this is my lord they are also saying merit I'm not disputing my I'm not saying senior only because senior I should be but we have done it my lord there is no competitive assessment there is no transparency and the worst thing my lord they are saying I could not be promoted my lord because there is a shock which has not led to anything my lord that itself vious my lord now the law is very well settled my lord consideration means lawful consideration now the here my lord my venturing shock my lord this is this is not a lawful consideration at all so My humble submission my lord this is a case my lord call all foreign an interference and they will have to redo I will not ask for a direction be promoted but there has to be sandbag my lord and uh my lord they will have to return the entire thing what will happen to pers >> what happened to them >> no they appearing just come back 5 minutes Yes, sir.
Don't die.
>> I may be please your chief. Yes m >> uh this practice of merit ceninarity it is an age old practice uh in KDC from time immemorial uh >> time memorial >> basically uh since inception of the since inception of the rule >> that is 1961.
So with that let us come to par seven of the a bit in opposition filed by the respondent number one to four that is page two your chip my colleague from the op from the petitional side has uh mentioned this rule 15 under chapter 3 Let me read again.
>> You refer >> that is I'm referring to par seven your lordship >> of the aid.
>> Yeah >> that is speech to your lordship.
>> Yes >> that is uh about chapter 3 rule 15 of the KJDC service rules 1961.
Yeah, >> it is specifically submitted that the set rules provide interalia promotion to any service grade or post shall be made ordinarily on the basis of merit consenity. So that part of course from the petitioner also they have not um contested or said otherwise.
Let me continue your ship. After careful examination of the character roles, special reports call for on the suitability of the eligible officers for promotion and other records. So basically uh uh as I have told you earlier your lordship this is decisions which have followed for long time from 1961 since inception of the rule.
When we say a merit continuity, we have to careful, we have to examine carefully on the character roles that is the service records including the personal files of the uh office concerned both the petitioner and also the other officers including respondent number five and respondent number six. Then special report we have already seen and uh the patina has already uh read that uh special report in ancip.
And when we say other records, it includes that recommendation and also the DPC.
So until unless rule 15 is uh amended or otherwise the issue raised by the petitioner will not hold water. We have to follow rule 15 in letter and spirit. So that is my first submission because this age-old practice I have told you your lordship earlier is back by law that is rule 15 which I mentioned just now.
Let us come to par 8 >> second uh that is the second one.
Furthermore, the petitioner was issued a show cause notice dated so and so so on of his order so so and so for negligence of duty signifying irresponsibility in the performance of his assigned duties in violation of official norms and directions.
Moreover, the petitioner failed to justify the foret show cause notice which clearly indicates his irresponsibility. Your loy that is a >> so so you mean to say Mr. Philip that uh there was a finding on his show cause it was unsatisfactory.
>> Yeah, the show cause it was found to be unsatisfactory. Did you all propose to take any further action like denial of promotion or denial of consideration or keep on proceedings or anything? No.
Yes. No departmental proceeding doesn't arise in your relationship but we have denied his promotion on the basis of >> promotion is amounts to a sort of punishment. See the thing is uh now if you have given show cause then what follows is that if you're not satisfied with the show cause then the law demands that you have an inquiry and you ask him but you appoint our officer to see why your sh was not satisfactory and why you should not be given these kinds of no you you you can take any like course of action against the petitioner. No but now as per affiliate after he sub he filed his shows he didn't find satisfied he left it at that >> yes we have that yes okay so when the senior officer inspected his office and he was found that he was not there so that point of being absent from duty is it is very here and it shows about his negligence of duty.
So that is the second submission.
Now coming to par 9 year old chip that is at page three that in response to paras 6 uh which has been raised by the petitioner hero chip.
It is reiterated that promotion in the instant case are guided by rule 15 that which I've read earlier of the service rule where merit encompass responsibility, punctuality, efficiency, sincerity, ethics and overall conduct of performance.
Now let me continue next speaker.
The consideration for promotion under the principle of merit consenity in the instant case was done on the basis of competency, dedication, punctuality and overall performance and not only on the basis of seniority alone >> promotion then your lordship in the department promotion committee is name also considered for promotion.
>> Yes of course.
>> Yes. Then >> so here the principle is your lordship merit come seniority not seniority come merit if it is seniority come merit yes that is why we have not disputed that the uh merit list prepared I mean seniority list prepared by the uh petitioner but if we take that into position yes of course is eligible but the issue is merit comes in 30. So here it comes. So that is that is why this rule 15 is applicable and we have to follow in letter and spirit.
Now coming to par 9 chip >> oh sorry par 9 par 10. zero chip par 10 that with regard to par seven of the petition filed by the petitioner. The answering respondent deny the allegations and summits that respondent number five and six were considered for promotion strictly in accordance with rule 15 again. So that is what we have considered from the uh respondent number 124. After careful examination of the records of all eligible candidates including reports from their department that is tax department which clearly establish their eligibility on the basis of punctuality, regularity, conduct and performance and they are found more materious meritorious than the petitioner. Hence on the basis of the this criteria provided under the KHC service rules the executive committee after consideration of the records of all existing sub inspector of taxes and the recommendation of the departments which highlighted their good performance and competency has endosed and recommended for promotion of the respondents. That is respondent number five and or four and five or five and six to the vacant post of the inspector of tax and that copy of the recommendation was read by the uh petitioner your lordship. So I need not mention about that again.
So keeping in mind this point uh I think we have to follow the uh rule 15 in letter and spirit and coming to par 12hip that we regard to par 9 of the petition we have mentioned it is it is reiterated that the merits outweigh seniority that is under rule 50. So the committee has duly considered the records of all the eligible candidates and has found that the respondent number five and six are more meritorious than the petitioner on the basis of punctuality, work ethics, responsibility, performance, work quality and strong work ethics with good public relation and proactive approach.
And uh this is totally different from what the contention of the petitionary relationship because in KDC it is not like in common setup where seniority outweighs merit your lordship. So that is important point you want to impress upon your lordship and uh we as the officers recruit your lordship. We feel that especially from the respondent side the petitioner cannot really compare this uh with the government rules and regulations because we have separate rules as rule 15 your lordship.
So uh the the reports let me come finally to rule or to page uh six yellow chip that is par 17 that is about the par 14 which they have uh written in their petition that the statements made in par 14 are denied.
The reports maintained in the department confirms that the petitioner was irregular and his performance was unsatisfactory.
So your lordship at that point of time he was in that condition but it doesn't mean that it will end there >> meaning >> meaning uh in the sense that suppose now in the next one or two years if his performance is good we can consider him why not from the office there is room for his improvement and we can consider him in due course provided his service record is okay in the near future. So that is my point.
So keeping uh this in my lordship I would appeal to the petitioner and request the petitioner to kindly improve his performance in the near future and definitely uh the office will consider him in future provided the rest of the things are okay but at the moment your lordship we have to follow rule number 15 in letter and spirit. governing authorities no I didn't know yeah only one question now when you have the departmental promotional committee is there any objective criteria laid out for consideration of the eligible >> in fact from the >> from the records you have the records with you >> no that we don't have records your lordship I don't have with me at the moment.
>> You leave aside that leave aside that show cause and the only thing is anyway.
>> Yes, Dr. >> Okay.
Come here.
You also have seen the rules. Rules clearly say on the basis of merit counselority after careful examination of the correct rules special reports where a special report >> called for on the suitability of the eligible officers for promotion and other records.
Now lot we'll see here in our will be next open.
>> Yes ma'am 5 and six Mr. S has taken a lot to that age 17 age >> 17 age six.
>> Okay.
Yes, >> this is a report submitted by >> page >> 177.
>> Okay, I >> my respon five and six >> doesn't have page five and six.
>> Oh, no.
One second.
>> Yes. 17.
>> Yes ma'am. Now this is a performance of sub some inspectors in the taxes and department submitted by superintendent of taxes man.
>> Yeah.
Now based on this report method the executive committee took a decision and the decision is at P6 married P6. We use the reports of all existing sub inspector tax in the department of council. Per also the report along with suggestion of the taxes and department the promotion of the existing vacancies of the post to inspector on the basis of good performance and competency as per records available with the department in their assigned duties. On examination of the suggestion, it is found that the department has recommended HB Malong and MG both sub inspector due to their outstanding performance, responsive, competency along with dedication, punctuality in their present post as SI tax for several years. Hence, after careful examination on the records and suggestion of the tax department, this committee has on the basis of merit, continuity upon the recommended so and so are deserving incumbents promotion to the back and post of inspector as clearly provided under 250.
>> Yes. So now no matter the only criteria laid down in the rules is some report from the the department and report from the department.
>> Where are the rules? Where is this report?
15 mil >> just now promotion to any service grade or post shall be made ordinary on the basis of merit continuity after careful examination of the character rules special reports called for on the suitability of the eligible officers for promotion and other Yes.
>> So my there is a basis for that. Malot the report is there on the record. Meot and the report is clearly indicated.
Not only these two me lots you kind of candidly see at P 17 there are some other candidates also whose report is regular with satisfactory performance.
Yes, I'll place one Supreme Court decision.
2024 SEC online SC972 this three judge bench I'll only refer to par 98 Yes. Par 98. The various decision of this code have only developed upon the principles of merit come seniority and seniority come merit by explaining the criterians that may be postulated within the framework of these principles for the purpose of promotion. The scope of the offers principle is summarized below.
The principle of seniority of merit postulates that minimum requirement of merit and suitability which is necessary for the higher post can be prescribed for the purpose of promotion.
Comparative assessment amongst the candidate is not required. Seniority of a candidate is not a determinative factor for promotion but has a predominant role upon fulfilling the minimum required qualification.
Promotion must be based on industy seniority. Then the principles of merit come from seniority postulates that merit plays a predominant role in and seniority alone cannot be given primacy.
Comparative assessment of merit is a crucial though not a mandatory factor.
Only where merit is equal in all respects can intercede senior to be considered meaning that a junior candidate can be promoted over the senior if the junior is more meritorious.
>> Yes.
Now my lord lot is seen from the EC's decision me all the sub inspectors were considered me there are only 10 sub inspectors you there are two most junior junior most one's junior most right >> I'm not the junior most >> you're not the junior most >> one junior most is provided by petitioner Anyway, >> one is junior most.
>> What is junior most? Yes. And >> six is junior most >> and five is number seven or something. 8 and 10.
>> Yes.
>> From the list provided by them by their >> whose list by the council >> in the repetition.
>> No, what list is this m? This is not in terms of seniority also.
>> What this is Mr. S?
>> Well, as I said, I have made a categorical statement there.
>> No, that will come will kindly come to that in paragraph six the petitioner.
>> Yes. Now six you say that the petitioner below set theory of the incumbent from the appointment you mean?
>> Yes. on the date of appointment and I have mentioned category retail is formal gradation lees not circulated by the official how were the seniorities set out are based on records and these are the dates these are dates and district council has not seniority is no relevance my the criteria is not denied >> the criteria is merit >> so even considering in the DPC there's no objective criteria set out when the DP when the promotion committee said also apart from competency and >> well character role these these are the criteria to determine merit melo this can be the only criter any report from the concern department and that's what the rule precise any reply submission >> reply they are not I thought at least they'll deny that shock shock they will not I'll address the >> see they're not they're not they're not alluding to sh because that's not relevant They're going by the general general character role as well >> performance report.
>> So the whole thing your whole your falls flat with regard to that you know issued and that the accus show was they've taken an overall assessment. No.
>> And if the performance rule provides for >> allows and you know special report >> special report that that can be one consideration but that cannot be everything your lawsuits number one number two performance report which they have what it say irregular because of the shock so irregular sh issue >> irregular but how irregular where is the report my lord that I am irregular where is yes what What reply do you have?
>> No, only one small submission I was trying to make my >> that seal covered procedure is no relevant this matter my >> yes >> and the judgment cited by them my lord at least three judgments which have been cited by the petitioner my lord pertain to the rules where the rule was seniority government may I just point out those judgments 2007 volume 9 has been cited 66 59.
>> What's the value?
>> No. Which which judgment is the same compilation?
Same pay 6600 >> of the compilation.
running P6.
>> Yes. Par three.
>> Mr. S refer to par. I'll refer to par three.
>> Yes.
>> Eight line.
>> Yes.
the paratri after that comes the next >> yes so not applicable >> it will not apply then next they refer to jank raman's judgment that is it gank here what supreme court said which page this page >> start from page 36 Yes.
Now Jan Kir Raman's case will have no relevance melod in this present case because what in Jan what Supreme Court said me >> yeah seal cover can charges issued something exonerated if exonerated in the department of >> that's that was a pending DP does not apply in this case >> what I'm trying to submit in jank me but supreme court said that if he exonerated he'll be given promotion from that date from the date his jun promoted me now jun promoted will come into picture Only the criteria is seniority commission.
>> No no seal cover procedures when suppose the DP is there then seal cover is exonerated then he will be considered.
>> It is not a case that he has not been considered.
>> Sever also other this one also.
This one.
>> The other reason cited is 2008 volume 74 with regard to ACR. Correct.
>> This is with regard to ACR and benchmark. Very good. Good. Those are the criteria. Even this judgment has no relevance.
2010.
>> Now another judgment cited is page 88 melod 2010 volume 1. This also pertains to seniority compared melod. We'll find that at par 2 mill sixth line par 2 on the basis of number.
Yes.
So in my humble submission my at this stage not not case for calling for any inter future vacancies my lord if improves the performance definitely department consider or it becomes meritorious or inter shortly very short as I said ships they are not denying this account they categorically saying shock us even my lord that performance report is speaking about shock my lord speaking of shock one thing irregularities and shock they saying no irregularities my lord it becomes something adverse whatever maybe the procedure they follow my lord can they do that why I have relied in immaterial by the seniority come time and again anything adverse against has to be >> communicated communicate there is nothing against me even on paper they could not show my lord how I irregular they saying you shall notice as an issue now shos cannot become a basis I have relied on this decision why I refer to Janak even Janak said even unless there is a DP my lord or charit is filed you cannot withheld the promotion and here they have denied me promotion and this is not a consideration at all because there is a shock and my lord 2007 I categorically say consideration means lawful considerations this is not a lawful consideration that means they have not considered me relying on the shock that is everything my lord and My lord, it say about the character rules recommendation that will be this your prayer.
>> My prayer my lordation is thereition we'll limit the set aside my dedication only to the prayer that you made here.
>> Set aside and consider case of the petitioner.
set aside the promotion minor legal limit and consider my case also because I have not been considered my if you relied on the sh they not denying that if you relied on that shock which has not led to any DP so that is not a consideration at all 2007 what it say that should be a lawful consideration this is not a lawful consideration this vicious everything so my humble submission it called for an interference money that's Should we pass or an open court or why not reserve?
You can assist in open code doesn't in open code we can assist a lot of the dates and other things.
>> Yes, we take down Petition who is presently holding the post of sub inspector taxation department KGDC is before this But assaling the where's the imperailing the order dated 6 January 25 >> January 25 whereby the respondents five and six have been given promotion to the post of inspector ctor of taxation in the set department.
Stop.
Before adverting to the arguments, uh it is first to be noted that the service of the petitioner is captioned under class three service of the what rules are this of the Kasi Hills district council service 1961 correct?
>> Yes ma'am.
And in the taxation service/ department uh the same consists of a entry level assistant sub inspector high next higher post sub inspector and the present post we're concerned with which is inspector of taxation.
Stop.
Next par Mr. SN council for the petitioner has submitted that the respondent five and six who been accorded promotion uh junior to the petitioner having joined the service much later that is in 2019 than 19 and 20 respectively whereas a petitioner entered service on 29 2014.
So the council has submitted that there is no objective criteria.
I have submitted that though the rules provide that promotion consideration should be on the basis of merit seniority.
In instant case there has been no objective criteria applied by the respondents in denying the petitioner his due promotion in view of due promotion though he is the senior most set it is also submitted that from the from submitted that the denial it appears has been on the basis of where is that >> basis of >> basis of a show cause >> that have been issued to the red petitioner on >> 38 38 2019 >> 38 2019 less than F >> A page 9 of the HS >> on the basis of a show cause notice dated 38,09 >> 19 with regard to or on the on the show with regard to negligence of not attending office regularly and lack of responsibility.
Stop.
The council submits that to the show called notice a reply was duly filed and the matter never proceeded thereafter.
Stop.
It is contended that as there was no departmental proceedings drawn up against the red petitioner and the denial of promotion being based so in the show cause of which uh which a proceeding which had which which had uh uh laps by itself the action of the respondents is arbitrary, discriminatory and the entire section process entire section is liable to be set aside and quashed.
Next paragraph Mr. W Kab appearing for the abundance one 1 to4 1 to4 has placed reliance on the affinate file on behalf respondents and has submitted that the clear stupilation submitted that the consideration for promotion is uh consider promotion is governed by rule 15 chapter 3.
By rule 15 of the Casil's at district council services 1061 submits that as per the said rule promotion to any service shall be made the basis of merit comes after careful examination of the character roles.
Special reports called for on a suitability of eligible officers for promotion apart from other records.
General Council submits that in the consideration for the promotion to the post of inspector of taxation from amongst the legible officers eligible sorry eligible sub inspectors of taxation.
A special report had been called for and on the basis of the recommendations made thereof which reflected that the practitioner was not the most suitable candidate for promotion.
Uh in view of merit promotion was newly accorded was accorded to the respondents six.
>> Stop. In this context the learned council has taken this court where the page 11 council. Yes. This code to to a performance chart of sub inspectors in a taxing department which is next as lecture C to the affidavit in opposition wherein against the petitioner's name he has been he has been shown to be irregular and shook issued stop. He therefore submits that the in compliance he submits that uh he submits that in total in in full compliance with the rule with the prescribed rule the promotions were granted to respondents five and six.
So he therefore he submits that there being no ground made without any interference.
The repetition is without any merit and lily be dismissed. Yes. Then Dr. in Mosika.
Next paragraph. Lenet senior council appearing for the respondents five and six has at the outset submitted that the consideration of promotion as can be seen from the materials on record was with the usual objective criteria that is assessment of the character role.
He further submits that uh it is not a fact as as alleged by the petitioner that the issuance of a show cause notice to the petitioner was the only ground for denial of promotion.
But in fact as per his stipulation of the rule on the basa on a bas of special report and due assessment the promotion was granted to the private respondents.
Uh Leonard Council, Len Council has also placed for this has placed reliance on that place reliance on the judgment of Lable Supreme Court and the case of so and so and so so and so uh wherein he submits at 98 thereof.
the the exact the principles of merit constity have been outlined.
The senior council that the merit therefore plays a predominant role in this innity alone can it be given primacy and that comparative assessment of merit is crucial though not a mandatory factor with regard to the after submission assault of Mr. has sent. So in support of his in support of his uh uh arguments in support of in support of his argument the land council for the petitioner has praised the alliance on the following decisions you take from the compilation decision which has been submitted in the form of compilation.
Stop.
Um with regard to the judgments placed by the L council the petitioner the senior council als has pointed out that the same would not be applicable to the case of the to the incident case in as much as firstly it is not a case of it's not a case of departmental proceedings which were pending and approach motion being considered and that the other cases referred to uh to do with seniority come merit and that merit come seniority. So uh he or he therefore also submits that the rule having been adhered to the petition is the merit neck paragraph. Um having heard the council with other parties considering the special nature that the district council occupies with regard to the special special nature of the rules which apply in the district council would be expedient to examine the concern rule as rule 15 which is reproduced here and below.
Stop.
A perusal of rule 15 quoted above would show that would show that um it strictly mandates the same to be considered the promotion be considered on the basis of mandates that a promotion be made on the basis of merit conserity after careful examination of the character roles, special reports and special reports stop. In the instant case though the petitioner has sought to make out a case that the denial of promotion has been due to the filing of the show cause where he has been found to be irregular.
Um regular former a perusal of the performance when it's been the next lecture C would show that after the word irregular a comma has there exists a comma after which was issued with in the case of the other legible candidates who also have not who have not been afforded promotion as in the case of one Nehemiah Mo appearing at seal number two. It is seen as irregular and show cause issued stop. A fair reading of these two captions would indicate that in the case of one candidate being irregular show cause issued whereas in the case of the petitioner shown to be irregular and show cause appears to be an added factor.
Notwithstanding these facts, the provision of the rules having specifically allowed the respondents the latitude to consider the cases the case for promotion on the basis of on the basis of merit and the respondent five and six having been found more as per the special report. Stop.
In the concept opinion of the squad, no interference is called for with a pin order and the reparation is allowed. Stop.
uh the the judgments placed by the L council or the petitioner be not being very relevant and not discussed.
or elaborated upon like accordingly for the reasons and circumstances state dismissed and according to the sport of his 40 here.
Yes.
stops it. This is with regards to regularization where actually I was appointed initially as a pion then after working as a pon then again the department have uh transfer me to the same p >> I'm not sure >> or is here yes >> yes >> and there after I have been working for uh for uh 28 years then by the departmental >> for 28 years Actually doctor number actually I have worked more than 38 years 30 years just let me just I will start it from wait don't be in a hurry >> yes I don't I don't >> Yes.
Yes.
>> Yes. Lordship. uh initially uh I will take you to page uh number 17 is appointment order appointed as a pond uh pond on uh 19 August 1984 as a P there after again the in white order at 26 >> regation orderation order your lordship uh initially during during my petition that the petitioner was not able to bring me the not able to publish the copy of the regulation also there is a order my lord to try to promoting to the sectional assistant I was absorbed as a work charge sectional assistant lordship I have the copy >> no see I want to see the order first appointment then regularize then a promotion see this is lecture page 17 Yes.
Page 17 is the >> healing appointment 1984. Right.
>> Logic.
>> And after that what happened?
>> Then after that an Lord that again I was uh in the same post works as department secretary from uh from secretary to subdivision subdivision of P William Nagar. Yeah.
>> Then my lord page uh 21 an 3 departmental promotion was their lordship actually that >> number three is my name where they have this one they >> regular skill >> regular ski now I have make a >> when they retire retired my lord it was in the year of achieve one 2012 >> goal what is this page 23 >> yes this This is the letter sent by the executive engineer to consider my promotion as a sectional assistant and to regularize my service. The last uh the relevant portion my lord page four of that paraph four of that page 23 may just it may be mentioned that the promotion of sri mundra g m from the pon to the post of sectional assistant department promotion committee here when you retire you take the last p of the pon no lordship I was already promoted lordship I have the document lordship actually you enjoy the scale of the system kindly kindly have a lordship I may be allowed to Fil because this one it was not brought during the timing of filing lordship.

>> Yes, sir.
>> If you ever hold charge second >> 199 charges.
>> Yes. What do you want to show?
Well, at page 18 of my reply, basically there is no provision under the rules to promote a P to the post of sectional assistant because Pon comes under the ministerial staff and SA comes under the technical staff. So therefore my lord, we are willing to as page 18 would show. So the letter that he was referring to where the chief engineer has been addressed. Uh page 18 is the response my page 18 of my reply.
Uh it shows that we are willing to consider the period spent as essay on an officiating basis but otherwise since there is no provision therefore he had to be reverted back.

So all those things much less loyal.
