IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CWP No. 17556-CAT of 2006 Date of Decision: 07.11.2006 Prem Singh ... Petitioner Versus The Central Administrative Tribunal and others ... Respondents CORAM : Hon'ble Mr. Justice J.S. Khehar, Hon'ble Mr. Justice S.D. Anand. Present : Mr. Sandeep Moudgil, Advocate, for the petitioner. J.S. Khehar, J.(Oral) Learned counsel for the petitioner in order to challenge the order passed the Central Administrative Tribunal dated 10.5.2006 (Annexure P-23), desires us to conclude that a candidate who has cleared the qualifying examination, to fill up 5 per cent posts in the merit quota, earmarked for promotion to the post of Lower Division Clerk, remains on the panel of selected candidates till his promotion, in terms of the instructions dated 14.11.1991 (Annexure P-4). In other words, it is submitted that the panel prepared on the basis of the qualifying examination never lapses. It is, therefore, contended that after the petitioner had qualified the examination in 1979 where he was ramped at Serial No.8 in the merit, he ought to have been promoted as a Lower Division Clerk on his turn from the 5 per cent merit quota. After realising that the aforesaid policy instructions have not been referred to, in the impugned order dated 10.5.2006, learned counsel CWP No. 17556-CAT of 2006 2 states, that he may be permitted to withdraw the instant writ petition, with liberty to file a review petition before the Central Administrative Tribunal, so as to bring to its notice the aforesaid policy instructions dated 14.11.1991 (Annexure P-4). Dismissed as withdrawn with liberty as aforementioned. (J.S. Khehar) Judge November 07, 2006 (S.D. Anand) vkd Judge
