CWP(T) No. 11541/2008 09.08.2011 Present: Mr. Ranjan Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Vinod Thakur, Dy. A.G. for respondents No.1 & 2 Notice in the petition was issued on 23.9.2004, yet reply has not been filed by the State inspite of sufficient opportunities afforded. 2. The only grievance made out by the petitioner is that persons junior to him were promoted as Headmasters in January and November 2000, whereas he was promoted as Headmaster only w.e.f. 27.5.2002. Even subsequently private respondents were further promoted as Principals on 31.5.2004, whereas he was not considered for promotion even on that date. 3. Consequently, as prayed for, without going into the merits of the matter, a direction is issued to the respondent-State to consider the petitioner’s case for promotion, if otherwise eligible, as a Headmaster and Principal from such dates, on which persons similarly situated and junior to him were promoted. Needful shall positively be done by respondent No.1, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of the certified copy of the judgment. Needless to add, the order shall be passed in accordance with law, after affording opportunity of hearing to all concerned. Consequences shall follow. Monetary benefits, as admissible, if found to be due and payable be also disbursed within the aforesaid period. 4. With the aforesaid observations, petition stands disposed off. August 09, 2011 ( Sanjay Karol ), (rana) Judge.
