1 S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.1764/2007 Shambhoo Lal Bhati. vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors. Date : 11.1.2010 HON'BLE MR. PRAKASH TATIA, J. Mr.BK Vyas, for the petitioner. Mr.LK Purohit, for the respondents. - - - - - Heard learned counsel for the parties. The petitioner's contention is that he was initially appointed on the post of Mate and not on the post of Beldar which is clear from Annex.3 dated 4.8.1984 and the petitioner was granted one selection grade in the year 1994 which is clear from Annex.4. The petitioner has been denied further selection grade vide order dated 3.10.2002 on the ground that the petitioner has already been given one promotion on the post of Mate and then he was given further promotion on the post of Munshi Grade-I, therefore, the petitioner is not entitled to award of selection grade as he got promotions. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner was appointed on the post of Mate and that has been treated to be a promotional 2 post and because of that, the respondents committed error in denying the selection grade. It is not in dispute that because of raising some grievance, the service of the petitioner was regularised on the post of Mate which is clear from Annex.3 and the post of Mate is 100% promotional post and no direct appointment could have been given to the petitioner on the post of Mate by direct recruitment. The petitioner admittedly thereafter got further promotion to the post of Munshi Grade-I. Therefore, the respondents by order dated 3.10.2002 rightly observed that the petitioner got two appointments on two promotional posts after his appointment and, therefore, he was not entitled to selection grade on completion of 18 years of service as demanded by the petitioner. In view of the above, I do not find any merit in this writ petition and the same is hereby dismissed. (PRAKASH TATIA), J. S.Phophaliya
