Here is the dispute whether the seniority of the petitioner should be reckoned from 15.5.1991 or with effect from 4.8.1990 for the purpose of promotion.3. In this context, Annexure-2 is referred, which, inter alia, reads as follows :'Since the transfer is being made at his own request Shri Singh will not be entitled to any transfer TA/Settling in Allowance etc. and his seniority in E-2 grade as Chemical Engineer will be reckoned from the date he joins in C.M.P.D.I.'
