STATE OF HARYANA vs S.M. SHARMA AND ORS.

The Supreme Court held that the order dated January 6, 1992, withdrawing the current duty charge of the Executive Engineer from the respondent was merely a posting order and did not amount to a reversion or promotion. The Court clarified that the respondent had no inherent right to retain the current duty charge and that the High Court erred in exercising its jurisdiction under Article 226, as the order did not cause any financial loss or prejudice to the respondent. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, and the High Court's decision was set aside.
