C.V. SATHEESHCHANDRAN vs G.M., UCO BANK .

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of the reversion of an employee from the officer cadre to the clerical cadre in UCO Bank, examining the provisions of the Promotion Policy Settlement (PPS) and Bipartite Settlement. The Court held that the conditions imposed on the appellant, including permanent forfeiture of promotion and ineligibility for stagnation increments, were unconstitutional and unjustified. Consequently, the Court upheld the High Court's decision to set aside the reversion order and directed the Bank to reinstate the appellant as an officer with all consequential benefits.
