Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the Central Administrative Tribunal's order rejecting the appellants' claim for appointment to Group C posts instead of Group D posts under the Divisional Railway Manager, Lumding. The Court held that the appellants had no legal right to challenge their appointment to Group D as they accepted the alternative offered by the Railway Administration, which acted in accordance with its policy to fill posts by promotion. The Court found no violation of Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution, affirming the Tribunal's decision.
