IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No. 4051 of 2010 Date of decision: 17.01.2011 Gopal Singh ...Petitioner Versus Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam and others ...Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RANJIT SINGH Present: Mr. R.N. Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. None for the respondents. RANJIT SINGH J. The petitioner has approached this Court for quashing the condition of passing the type test as stipulated vide letter dated 16.04.2009, Annexure P-8. This condition has been imposed for his step up at par with the employees, who are junior to him and for grant of ACP. The counsel for the petitioner contends that no such condition was imposed in the order promoting the petitioner to the post of LDC. No one appears on behalf of the respondents. Reply is also not filed. Besides, the counsel for the petitioner has drawn my attention to the order passed in CWP No. 177 of 2009 decided on 17.08.2010, where similar claim in respect of one employee has been allowed. It is observed by this Court that passing of type test was not stipulated for promotion to the post of LDC. The petitioner was promoted in the year 1992 and he is still in service. He is being granted regular increment all along. In this Civil Writ Petition No. 4051 of 2010 -2- view of the matter, the relief claimed in the present writ petition apparently is squarely covered by the decision passed by this Court in CWP No. 177 of 2009 titled as Shankar Dass versus Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam and others. The present petition is allowed in the same terms. January 17, 2010 (RANJIT SINGH ) rts JUDGE
