1998 Supreme(SC) 1158
B.N.KIRPAL, K.VENKATASWAMI
UNION OF INDIA – Appellant
Versus
V. K. SIROTHIA – Respondent
ORDER
1. Heard counsel on both sides.
2. The finding of the Tribunal that "the so-called promotion as a result of redistribution of posts is not promotion attracting reservation" on the facts of the case, appears to be based on good reasoning. On facts, it is seen that it is a case of upgradation on account of restructuring of the cadres, therefore, the question of reservation will not arise. We do not find any ground to interfere with the order of the Tribunal.
3. The civil appeal is dismissed. No costs.
4. In view of the order passed in Civil Appeal No. 3622 of 1995, etc., this appeal has to be allowed as in the order under appeal the Tribunal has taken a contrary view. The appeal is, therefore, allowed. No costs.
