Jindal, J The petitioner has invoked the provisions of Articles 226/227 of the Constitution of India for quashing the order dated 26.4.1991 (Annexure P5) passed by the Chief Agriculture Officer, Sangrur, vide which promotion of the petitioner as Agriculture Sub Inspector was cancelled. The civil court had decided the case in favour of petitioner vide judgment dated 5.6.1987. The appeal preferred by the State of Punjab was also dismissed with the following observations :- “.... it is ordered that I modify the decree passed by the Ld. Senior Sub Judge, Sangrur and instead pass a decree for mandatory injunction in favour of Krishan Chand plaintiff respondent against the State of Punjab defendant- appellant. The State of Punjab is directed to consider the name of the plaintiff respondent Krishan Chand for promotion of Class III post existing in the department or falling vacant in the near future including the post of Bio-Gas-Mechanic in terms of the instructions of the Government as Ex.P.16 on the record of the case. With this modification in the judgment and decree, there is no merit in this appeal and the same stands dismissed. The parties are left to bear their own costs throughout.” Civil Writ Petition No. 6853 of 1991 -2- Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that though he was promoted as Class III post, yet, he was not promoted as Agriculture Sub Inspector, therefore, he has to file this writ petition. As a matter of fact, no second appeal or revision was filed by the petitioner against the judgment- decree dated 8.12.1987 passed by the learned Additional District Judge, Sangrur, therefore, the said judgment has become final. No grounds to interfere. Dismissed. May 25, 2011 (A.N. Jindal) deepak Judge
