JUDGMENT
1. 1. This litigation commenced in this Court more than twenty years back with the filing of a writ petition on March 3, 1967 by appellant Sumer Chand Bhandari, an officer of the Rajasthan Administrative Service, who was then in the junior scale, alleging unequal treatment in the matter of employment and promotion According to the Rules of this Court in existence till recently the writ petition was heard by a Single Judge who dismissed the same by an order dated September 30, 1975. In accordance with the provision contained in section 18 of the Rajasthan High Court Ordinance providing for an internal appeal, this appeal was then filed in 1975 and is now being disposed of by us. During this period the appellant's grievance has got aggravated at every stage of his service career resulting from his initial grievance that his juniors had been promoted to the senior scale in the Rajasthan Administrative Service before him; and this continued till his retirement from the Indian Administrative Service on December 31, 1983 on attaining the age of superannuation. The claim of the appellant now is reduced only to the monetary benefits if he succeeds to any extent in this litigation.
