Suresh Kumar and others .....Petitioners versus The Sutlej Gramin Bank and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.A.K.Walia, Advocate, for the petitioners. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioners are working as Clerk-cum-Cashiers in respondent No.1-bank. Their grievance is that while promoting their juniors, namely, respondent Nos.2 to 4 to the post of Officer Scale-I, the claim of the petitioners has not been considered even though they fulfill the minimum bench mark for such promotion. It is pointed out that one Suresh Kumar who is junior to the petitioners and has participated alongwith them in the promotion process in the years 2006-2007 has been promoted on May 31, 2010 but the petitioners have been denied the same relief though they have represented the authorities time and again including vide representation dated 21.6.2010 (Annexure P-9) followed by a reminder dated 26.10.2010 (Annexure P-10). C.W.P.No .4006 of 2011 2 Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition, however, without expressing any views on their entitlement, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to respondent No.1-bank to consider the claim of the petitioners as contained in their above-mentioned representation and dispose of the same by passing a speaking order, within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. If the petitioners are found entitled to, they be promoted within the stipulated period. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. March 07, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
