IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.5890 of 2009 FIROZ IQBAL SHAHEEN Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 12.05.2009 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Counsel for the State. The deceased wife of the petitioner has been granted benefits of lst time bound promotion after her demise by an order dated 17.5.2007 with effect from 13.3.1986. The law stands settled that time bound promotion is not a promotion in strict sense of the term but only to prevent stagnation bring additional monetary benefits. Therefore if the respondents have passed any order granting any such benefit to the wife of the petitioner, they are required to have full effect to the same by making available all consequential monetary benefits. That part of the order which makes the payment conditional to approval from the Health Department is struck down. This payment is however to be made after examination of dues, if any, by the respondents in accordance with law. Let the order be complied with within a maximum period of three months from the date of receipt and/or production of a copy of this order. The writ application stands disposed off.
