The Supreme Court held that the appellant, an Executive Engineer, was entitled to be considered for promotion after being unjustly suspended and not promoted while his juniors were. The Court noted that the respondents failed to produce any counter or record to substantiate the case against the appellant, thus ruling in his favor. The Government was directed to consider his promotion based on his service record, excluding any material related to his inspection report.
