Reserve Bank Of India vs Prem Sukh

The Supreme Court, while disposing of Civil Appeal No. 4018 of 2002, declined to exercise its powers under Article 136 of the Constitution of India, emphasizing that the question of law raised by the appellant was left open for consideration in future cases. The Court noted that the respondent had been promoted to the post of Staff Officer/Assistant Treasurer in 2006 despite the stay order issued in 2002, and clarified that the order would not serve as a precedent. The appeal was dismissed without entering into the merits of the legal question.
