The Appellant/Petitioner has preferred the present Writ Appeal as against the order dated 10.06.2009 in W.P.No.9355 of 2000 passed by the Learned Single Judge.

2. The Learned Single Judge, while passing the order in W.P.No.9355 of 2000 on 10.06.2009, has, among other things, observed that '... it is clear that the petitioner is far junior to the third respondent in the post of Assistant, which is the feeder category to the post of Superintendent. Hence, the claim of the petitioner was rightly rejected and the claim of the third respondent was considered by the second respondent and approved by the first respondent. Petitioner has not made out a case on merits to consider his claim for promotion to the post of Superintendent' and consequently, dismissed the Writ Petition without costs.
