IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P.No.23516 of 2010 Date of decision : 12.1.2011 Med Singh ....Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others ...Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER .... Present : Mr.N.S.Shekhawat, Advocate for the petitioner. ..... MAHESH GROVER, J. It is evident from the averments made in the writ petition that the petitioner has filed a civil suit for declaration making the grievance out of the fact that he has not been confirmed. There are adverse confidential remarks against the petitioner as well. In the instant petition, a prayer has been made that the petitioner be promoted from the date when his juniors were promoted on 31.8.2003. Since the petitioner's claim qua confirmation in the civil suit is still pending that may be granted to him in case of his success therein, I am of the opinion that the writ petition cannot proceed for the simple reason that the petitioner has taken recourse to the filing of civil suit and the prayer made herein would also be dependent on C.W.P.No.23516 of 2010 -2- the outcome of the civil suit. The petition is hereby dismissed in view of the fact that the petitioner has availed himself of the remedy of a civil suit. However, the petitioner, if so advised, may amend his pleadings accordingly in the civil suit to raise his grievance before the court where such a suit is pending . 12.1.2011 (MAHESH GROVER) JUDGE dss
