The appellant has already challenged the order of withdrawal of his promotion from the post of Earth Work Mistry and his application for impleadment in the present case has been dismissed by the learned Single Judge holding that he was neither necessary nor a proper party. 2. The instant appeal is directed against the order dated 12.01.2011 rendered by the learned Single Judge. The appellant was not LPA No.807 of 2011 (O&M) -2- a party-respondent in that matter. He filed an application which was dismissed vide order dated 28.04.2011 passed by the learned Single Judge holding that the effect of the decision rendered by this Court in the main writ petition filed by respondent No.6-Piara Singh, even if incidentally effects the appellant, did not necessarily lead to the conclusion that he was necessary/proper party. Even otherwise, it is conceded that the appellant has already filed writ petition bearing CWP No.7648 of 2011 for redressal of his grievance. Once he was not a party then the decision rendered by the learned Single Judge would not affect the interest of the appellant. It goes without saying that the judgment rendered by the learned Single Judge cannot be read against him. 3. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal, especially when a writ petition has already been filed by the appellant challenging the withdrawal of his promotion. (M.M.
