D.B. Shah and ors. Vs. State and anr.

Court: Gujarat

Decided on: Jul-19-1982

Reported in: (1983)1GLR319

B.K. Mehta, J.1. The petitioners have moved this Court for appropriate writs, orders and directions to quash and set aside the order of their reversion from the posts of Under Secretary to Section Officer. The said order is dated July 14, 1977, Annexure 'C' to the petition. The grievance of the petitioners is that though respondent No. 2 was promoted alongwith the petitioners in March 1977, and was ranked much below the petitioners in the unconditional select list of Section Officers prepared for promotion to the posts of Under Secretary and which select list is based on the respective seniority of the Section Officers, he was retained as Under Secretary while the petitioners have been reverted. This action of the Government is, in submission of the petitioners, discriminatory and, therefore, violative of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution of India. The petitioners have, therefore, prayed that the impugned order of reversion be quashed and set aside so far, as it affects the petiti...
