Anwar Husena Bammanali vs Uma Mahadevan

The Supreme Court directed the Government of Karnataka to appoint the petitioner as Superintendent Grade-I (Probation Officer Grade-I) due to the peculiar circumstances of the case, where the petitioner was selected but not appointed due to the non-availability of vacancies. The Court accepted the explanation provided in the affidavit by Ms. Deepa M. Cholan and dropped the contempt proceedings against her. The Court clarified that this order is specific to the case and does not set a precedent, with seniority to be counted from the date of appointment.
