Relinquishment of promotion to a particular vacancy does not permanently extinguish the right to be considered for promotion to any vacancy arising in the future, as per the interpretation of Rule 28....

The settlement of disputes related to teachers’ training and the finalization of the seniority list are crucial for determining entitlement to promotion under the relevant rules.
Court directs consideration of promotion representation expeditiously without merits adjudication in writ petition.
