IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL WRIT PETITION NO. 1503 OF 2004 (S/S) Rajendra Prashad Arya & others … Petitioners Versus State of Uttaranchal & others … Respondents Present: Mr. Ashish Joshi, Advocate for the petitioners Mr. Anil Bisht, Brief Holder for the State of Uttarakhand Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.(Oral) The petitioners were appointed as Assistant Teacher in Primary School in the year 2003. Subsequently, the respondents were promoted other Assistant Teachers to the post of Assistant Teacher of Secondary School. The case of the petitioners is that other Assistant Teachers (Primary School), who were promoted as Assistant Teachers of Secondary School in the year 2004, were promoted before the petitioners. Hence, the petitioners be also promoted. In the counter affidavit, respondents have stated that parity with those, who have been promoted, cannot be granted to the petitioners, as they were appointed in the year 2002, prior to the appointment of the petitioners. The case of the petitioners before this Court is that the respondents have promoted other Assistant Teachers even before their probation period had come to an end. This benefit, however, should be given to the petitioners as well. Merely because a wrong has been committed by the respondents, this Court cannot direct the respondents to commit the same wrong, as two wrongs do not make a right. Therefore, the prayer made by the petitioners cannot be granted. The writ petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 26.08.2011 Aswal
