Balbir Singh Vs. State of Punjab and ors.

Court : Punjab and Haryana

Reported in : AIR1975P& H83

..... i am quite certain in my mind that the petitioner himself would feel frustrated, one of the proper ways of observing the instructions in the matter of reservation of vacancies and posts is that the first vacancy should be allowed to be occupied by a member of a scheduled caste as and when it arises till such a member is finally absorbed in the higher rank. ..... speaker had no power to reserve any post for scheduled castes or to review the conditions of service of the employees working in the vidhan sabha secretariat;(3) that since there were only two posts of deputy superintendents in the vidhan sabha secretariat, the reservation of the first, sixth and the eleventh posts for the scheduled castes amounted to reservation of 50% of posts in their favour which was violative of article 16(1) of the constitution; and(4) that the order dated november 14, 1973, itself suffers from irreconcilable contradictions. ..... it is urged that this has affected their chances of promotion which were protected under the proviso to section 115(7) of the act, which lays down that the conditions of service applicable immediately before the appointed day to the case of any person allotted to the new state shall not be varied to his disadvantage except with the previous approval of the central government. ..... it is settled law that the government can act under article 162 of the constitution even in the absence of rules in matters relating to the service of its employees. .....
