RAM UJAREY vs U O I

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the reversion order dated 18.4.1980, which reverted the appellant from the post of Skilled Fitter to Khalasi. The Court held that the appellant's prior service from 1964 to 1972 should be counted towards seniority, as he had acquired permanent status and was not surplus. The judgment of the Central Administrative Tribunal was set aside, affirming the appellant's entitlement to the promotions he had earned through trade tests under the Central Administrative Tribunals Act, 1985, specifically Section 19.
