C.W.P. No. 1305 of 1990 [ 1 ] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH C.W.P. No. 1305 of 1990 Date of Decision: Feb. 18, 2010 Harjeet Singh ....................................................... Petitioner Versus The State of Punjab and others ...................... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ashutosh Mohunta Present: None for the petitioner. Mr. O.P. Dabla, DAG, Punjab. ... ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA, J. (Oral) The petitioner has prayed that directions be issued to the respondents not to revert the petitioner from the post of Pump Driver to that of Fitter/Helper. The petitioner was appointed as Fitter/Helper in the PWD, Public Health Department, in the month of April 1980. The petitioner was initially appointed on work-charge basis. It is the case of the petitioner that in the year 1982 he was assigned the duties of a Pump Driver and he was performing the duties of Pump Driver to the entire satisfaction of his superiors. The petitioner has contended that he worked on the post of Pump Driver for a period of more than 8 years when he was suddenly reverted to the post of Fitter/Helper. It has been contended that the action of the C.W.P. No. 1305 of 1990 [ 2 ] respondents in reverting the petitioner from the post of Pump Driver to that of Fitter/Helper is wholly arbitrary and discriminatory. Reply has been filed on behalf of the respondents wherein it has been averred that the petitioner was appointed as Fitter/Helper but was never promoted to the post of Pump Driver. It has further been averred that no order has been placed on record by the petitioner from which it can be known that the petitioner was reverted from the post of Pump Driver to the post of Fitter/Helper. A perusal of the writ petition shows that no order of reversion has been placed on record by the petitioner. Apart from the above, there is also no order by which the Court can come to the conclusion that the petitioner was ever promoted to the post of Pump Driver. In the absence of any order of promotion to the post of Pump Driver or any order showing the reversion of the petitioner, no relief can be granted to the petitioner. Resultantly, there is no merit in the writ petition and the same is dismissed. 18.2.2010 ( ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA ) Rupi JUDGE
