The dispute in the writ petition is regarding the right of the petitioner to get promotion as Law Officer Grade II in the appellant organisation. By an interim order granted earlier in the abovementioned writ petition this Court directed that during the pendency of the writ petition the abovementioned post shall not be filled up. Therefore, the appellants herein filed the above application seeking vacation of the interim order. By the order under appeal a learned Judge of this Court rejected the I.A. Hence the appeal. 3. In the circumstances we are of the opinion that the appeal itself can be disposed of at the admission stage by WA No. 1908 of 2010 -:2:- directing the Registry to list the abovementioned writ petition, i.e. W.P.(C) No. 5698 of 2010, for hearing before appropriate Bench on 29.11.2010.
