IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARANCHAL AT NAINITL Writ Petition No. 407 of 2004 (S/B) Rajeev Kumar S/o Sri Bikram Singh, R/o Ladari Complex Uttarkashi presently posted as Assistant Engineer, Minor Irrigation, Uttarkashi … Petitioner Versus Union of India through Chairman State Advisory Committee, 31 Jawahar Lal Staduim, New Delhi & others … Respondents Rajeev Singh Bisth, learned counsel for the petitioner Ms. Anjali Bhargawa, learned Standing Counsel (Central) for the respondents. Hon’ble P.C. Verma,J. Hon’ble B.C. Kandpal, J. By means of this writ petition, the petitioner seeks a writ of certiorari to quash the order dated 27.11.2004 passed by respondent No. 4 i.e. Chief Engineer/Head of Department, Irrigation & Minor, Irrigation Department, Yamuna Colony, Dehradun whereby the respondent No. 5 has been given officiating charge of Executive Engineer, Minor Irrigation ignoring the claim of the petitioner. Further, a direction has been sought to command the respondents to consider the petitioner for taking the officiating charge of Executive Engineer. From the prayer made itself, it reveals that no substantive right is affected. It is only a local arrangement by giving officiating charge depending on the exigency of service. It is not a case that the petitioner has been superseded in promotion illegally. In view of the above, we are not inclined to entertain the writ petition. The petition is dismissed accordingly. No order as to costs. (B.C. Kandpal, J.) (P.C. Verma, J.) 27.03.2006 R. Dang
