U O I vs BRIJ LAL THAKUR

The Supreme Court held that the application of the rule of rotation and roster point to a single post does not violate Articles 14 and 16(1) of the Constitution. The Court reversed the Tribunal's decision which had set aside the promotion of Smt. Prakash Kaur as E.C.G. Technician, affirming that the promotion was valid as it adhered to the established roster system. The judgment clarified that even in a solitary post, reservations can be constitutionally applied if the rules are followed correctly.
