Rama Negi vs Union Of India

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals filed by Rama Negi challenging the Uttarakhand High Court's decision that quashed his promotion to the post of Office Superintendent in the Cantonment Board. The court upheld the High Court's ruling which favored the respondent, Gopal Ram Arya, based on the determination of inter se seniority between the two parties. The judgment reinforces the principle that seniority plays a crucial role in promotion decisions within public service.
