IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition (S/B) No. 202 of 2011 Savitri Sah ..……… Petitioner Versus State of Uttarakhand and others ……...… Respondents Present: Mr. M.C. Pant, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. J.P. Joshi, Chief Standing Counsel for the State/respondent Nos. 1 to 3. Coram: Hon’ble Barin Ghosh, Chief Justice Hon’ble V.K. Bist, Judge Date: 28th July, 2011 JUDGMENT Barin Ghosh,C.J. (Oral) It appears to us that the subject matter of dispute in the instant case is the seniority list prepared, where respondent No.4 has been shown to be senior to the petitioner. It appears to be the contention of the petitioner that inasmuch as respondent No.4 has been shown senior to the petitioner, the said respondent has obtained a promotion ignoring the true seniority of the petitioner. Therefore, the dispute is of seniority, which must be sorted out first before the Tribunal. 2. We, accordingly, dispose of the matter with liberty to the petitioner to approach the Tribunal. (V.K. Bist, J.) ( Barin Ghosh, C.J.) 28.07.2011 28.07.2011 P. Singh
