Pratap Singh vs The Registrar, Igit & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in dismissing the appellant's writ petition seeking mandamus for service conditions and seniority recognition. The Court emphasized that the appellant's service as cashier from 1.5.1989 should be considered for seniority, as the posts of cashier and senior assistant are interchangeable. The Court directed the High Court to reconsider the appellant's claim for seniority based on his regularization date, thus allowing the appeal and remanding the case for further proceedings.
