The appellants filed the writ petition mainly aggrieved by the orders issued by respondents 2 and 3 adopting Ext.P1 Special Rules. The learned Judge by order dated 22.02.2011 declined the interim relief sought for. It is against the said order, the Writ Appeal is filed. 2. We are not satisfied that the appellants have made out a case to interfere with the discretionary order passed by the learned Judge. Learned counsel for the appellants invited our attention to Annexure I Circular produced in the writ appeal and contended that following the rejection of the prayer for interim relief, the Board has issued Annexure I Circular proposing to effect promotion from the post of Assistant Engineers(Electrical) to Assistant Executive Engineers, even in the absence of vacancies in that cadre. In our view, if the appellants are aggrieved by Annexure I WA No. 294 of 2011 -:2:- Circular, it is for the appellants to work out their remedies against Annexure I. We see no reason to interfere with the order under appeal. The Writ Appeal fails and it is dismissed. J.Chelameswar, Chief Justice. Antony Dominic, Judge. ttb
