CWP(T) No. 2070/2008 16.08.2010 Present: Mrs. Ranjana Parmar, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. R. M. Bisht, Dy. A.G. for respondents No.1 & 2 Mr. D. K. Khanna, Advocate, for respondent No.3 In this petition, petitioner has assailed the recommendations of the D.P.C. held in August, 1992 for filling-up the post of Lecturer/Workshop Superintendent (Mechanical Engineering). The challenge is on the ground that the petitioner’s claim who is from scheduled caste category has been wrongly ignored. 2. Record reveals that the said post is Class-I and that the posts for reserved category which are not filled-up in the relevant year cannot be carried forward to the next year. This is evident from the instructions (Annexure R-VI). 3. That apart, petitioner became eligible for being considered for the said post only in June, 1990 which is apparent from his option (Annexure R-V). There is no doubt that to fill-up three posts, D.P.C. was convened on 10.7.1992. However these posts pertained to the period 1987 and 1988. Two posts had fallen vacant in the year 1987 out of which one was to be filled-up by a candidate belonging to a reserved category. Since none from the said category was found eligible the post was filled- up by a person belonging to a general category. The post which fell vacant in the year 1988 was to be filled up by a person from general category. Hence, petitioner was otherwise not eligible for being promoted to the post which had fallen vacant prior to his having acquired eligibility. 4. For the aforesaid reasons, the present petition without any merit is dismissed. ( Sanjay Karol ), Judge. August 16, 2010 (rana)
