So far the petitioner, Ramayan Pandey is concerned, he was given first time-bound-promotion after completion of 10 years of service from the date of his getting Matric Trained Scale. Second time-bound-promotion was due after completion of 25 years of service, i.e., on 21.04.1996, but prior to that the petitioner retired on 31.07.1992, as such second time-bound-promotion was not admissible to the petitioner.

Considering the show-cause, filed on behalf of the Opposite Party No. 7, and the submission made by the counsel, this contempt application is disposed of. SKM (Mridula Mishra, J.)
