Headnote | Rajasthan Police Service Rules, 1954: Rules 28(A), 33-Appointment to the Selection Scale constitute promotion-Seniority in the selection scale as per Rule 33 if promotion from senior scale to selection scale.Words & Phrases: 'Promote'-Promotion-Meaning of The appellants-officers and the respondent were all appointed to the Rajasthan Police service by direct recruitment and were promoted to the senior scale. In the senior scale respondent was senior to the said appellants. On the basis of recommendations made by the Selection Committee constituted under Rule 32 of the Rajasthan Police Service Rules, all appellants were promoted to selection scale on the basis of seniority cum merit by promotion order date 27.4.1989. Two of the appellants were appointed to the selection grade against posts reserved for Scheduled, castes and scheduled Tribes. The respondent was appointed to the selection scale by order dated 24.1.1991. As per the seniority list dated 30.6.1990, seniority in the selection scale was fixed on the basis of date of appointment to the selection scale. Respondent filed a Writ Petition before the High Court challenging the seniority list and sought a direction for maintaining the seniority of the incumbents of Senior Scale even after the grant of the Selection Scale. He had also assailed the validity of Rule 8 of the Rules as well as the reservation policy dated 10.2.1975 and the 100 point roster system dated 9.7.1985 as being ultra vires Article 16(4) of the Constitution of India. The High Court held that there is/are no separate post/posts in the Selection Scale and that grant of selection scale to certain number of officers working in Senior Scale so as to avoid stagnation and to keep interest of the officers in the service intact does not involve promotion in the eye of law. The High Court quashed the seniority list dated 30.6.1990.Hence, these appeals by the State as well as by the their officers.Allowing the appeals |
