Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Division Bench's decision regarding the appellant's promotion as an Additional District Judge, emphasizing that adverse entries in the annual confidential rolls prior to 6.10.1995 should be disregarded in the promotion consideration. The Court noted that the appellant was granted selection grade retrospectively from 6.10.1995, and directed that his case for promotion be evaluated on its own merits without the influence of earlier adverse entries. The appeals were disposed of with no order as to costs.
