Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the promotion of Smt. Shakuntala to the post of Inspector, holding that her reversion to Sub Inspector was unjustified and based on non-existent grounds. The Court directed the State to consider her fresh representation regarding her promotion date, emphasizing that prior orders should not impede her case. The Court did not decide on the merits of the promotion issue but ensured that the appellant's interests were protected and mandated a decision within three months of her representation.
