Ahmed, learned Standing Counsel, Irrigation Department. Considering the grievance raised in the writ petition and as agreed to by the l earned counsel appearing for the parties, this writ petition is being disposed o f at the motion stage itself. The instant writ petition has been filed with a limited prayer for a direction t o the respondent authorities to publish the select list duly held by the Selecti on Committee and promote the petitioners with all service benefits including sen iority over their juniors with effect from the date of their entry into the serv ice. Petitioners’ case in brief is that they are Grade IV employees under Irrigation Department, Nalbari Division. Their services have been regularized in the year 2 005. Subsequently, in the year 2009, a Selection Test held to promote the Sr. Gr ade-IV employees to the post of Junior Assistant, Section Assistant under the I rrigation Department, Nalbari Division. Accordingly, the petitioners appeared i n the Selection Test but the result of Selection Test has not yet been published . Being aggrieved and with an apprehension that the respondent authorities may pro mote other Grade IV employees who are junior to the petitioners, the instant wri t petition has been filed with the aforesaid prayer. Dr. Ahmed on instruction submits that a Circle Level Selection Committee has bee n constituted as per provisions of Assam Irrigation Establishment (Technical) Se rvice Rules, 1990 and Assam Ministerial District Establishment Service Rules, 1 967 headed by Superintending Engineer of the Circle i.e. of the North Kamrup Cir cle, Irrigation, Nalbari as Chairman for selection of Grade IV employees for pro motion to Grade-III categories of posts namely, Junior Assistants, Section Assis tants on promotion in two Divisions under the Circle. After completion of the se lection, the records of such selection have been sent to the office of the Chief Engineer, Irrigation, Assam by the Executive Engineer, Irrigation Nalbari Div ision (Member Secretary of the Selection Committee) for approval. However, due to some inconsistencies found in the Select list for the post of Section Assista nts, the Minutes of the Selection Committee /select lists have been returned to the Chairman i.e. Superintending Engineer, North Kamrup Circle, Irrigation, Nalb ari Division asking him to re-submit the same to the office of the Chief Enginee r after proper verification and necessary rectification. Therefore, selection pr ocess being not yet been completed publishing of select list does not arise. I have heard learned counsel appearing for the parties. Perused the materials av ailable on record including the report submitted by Dr. Ahmed. Considering the prayer so made by the petitioner, I deem it fit and proper to di spose of the writ petition with a direction to the Superintending Engineer, Nort h Kamrup Circle, Nalbari Division, Irrigation Department to verify the select li st and make necessary rectification as directed by the Chief Engineer and therea fter sent it to the Chief Engineer for approval at the earliest. The Chief Engin eer, thereafter, shall approve the select list as per rules prescribed at the ea rliest possible time. With the above direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. The written instruction placed before this Court by Dr. Ahmed be kept in the rec ord. Mdb
