CWP 11599/2010 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH SB Civil Writ Petition No.11599/2010 Smt. Shobha Kaushik Vs. The State of Rajasthan & anr. DATE OF ORDER : 20/08/2010 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY RASTOGI Mr.Ashok Gaur, for petitioner. Instant petition has been filed by the petitioner assailing the order dt.22/07/2010 by which persons junior to him are promoted on the post of Joint Registrar, Cooperative Societies for the vacancies of the year 2010-11 by seniority cum merit on the recommendations made by the Departmental Promotion Committee. The main thrust of the submissions of counsel is that his supersession is bad in law and the reasons assigned that the petitioner has been punished with penalty of censure which cannot be taken into consideration as an impediment to deprive the petitioner of his promotion for the year 2010-11, particularly when his juniors have been promoted on the basis of seniority-cum-merit. This may be his one of the defence available but the order which has been passed by the respondents on the recommendations of the Departmental Promotion Committee and as alleged that juniors to the petitioner were CWP 11599/2010 [2] promoted, is indeed appealable order under the Act, 1976 before the Service Appellate Tribunal. In view of efficacious remedy of appeal which petitioner has failed to avail of, this Court is not inclined to entertain instant petition under its equitable jurisdiction U/Art.226 of the Constitution. Consequently, writ petition is hereby dismissed. However, petitioner will be at liberty to avail of remedy under the law. [AJAY RASTOGI], J. Raghu-11599-CW-2010-final.doc
