Their grievance is that the private respondents have been promoted as Sanitary Supervisors even when they do not possess the minimum qualification of 8th Class. It is also averred that earlier the promotions were made only from amongst the Safai Sewaks who possessed the 8th class qualification and as per the seniority position contained in the memo dated 12.10.2009. However, the said criteria has now been violated while making promotions vide order dated 12.1.2011 (Annexure P-4). The aggrieved petitioners have served the respondents with a legal notice dated 12.3.2011 (Annexure P-5) also but there is no response so far.
