1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN BENCH AT JAIPUR S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.7565/02 Satish Bihari Mathur vs. State & Ors. Date of order : 18/3/2009. HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MOHAMMAD RAFIQ Dr. Y.C. Sharma for the petitioner. Shri Zakir Hussain, Addl. Govt. Counsel for the respondents. ****** This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner challenging his supersession by his juniors namely; Dr. Girdhari Lal Rajoriya and Dr. M.M. Vyas who were promoted on the post of Chief Medical and Health Officer in the year 1997 and the petitioner was ignored. Petitioner contended that even though he was senior to these persons, the respondents have illegally ignored him and direction for not taking the petitioner is illegal and contrary to law. Learned counsel for the respondents have clarified that petitioner underplayed and concealed the fact about his suspension. Since the petitioner was suspended by order dated 10.8.2001 on account of his involvement in the criminal case filed with Police Station Uniara, District Tonk vide 2 FIR No.112/1995, he cannot be granted promotion. So far Dr. Girdhari Lal is concerned, he was member of Scheduled Caste and he got preference on that account. Regarding Dr. M.M. Vyas, it is contended that he is a P.G. Degree holder in Public Health. He was selected for promotion in view of notification dated 30.6.1999 against the quota of 20% for the persons holding such P.G. Degree. Their cases, therefore, even otherwise are distinguishable from the case of the petitioner. In view of the clarifications made by the respondents and even otherwise due to non-impleadment of two persons referred to above, I do not find any merit in this writ petition, which is accordingly dismissed.
