https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=460639 A two-stage promotion process for Air Vice Marshal posts, involving merit-based shortlisting on annual confidential report and board marks followed by seniority-based allocation against vacancies, was described as consistent with a seniority-cum-merit system. The text states that an employee has no vested right to promotion, only a right to be considered, and that promotion criteria are ordinarily a matter of policy unless shown to be arbitrary, discriminatory, or contrary to Articles 14 and 16. It also notes that a candidate who participates in the process with knowledge of the rules cannot later challenge it after an unsuccessful result, and that superannuation before a vacancy arises does not by itself invalidate the promotion policy. en-us Thu, 03 Oct 2019 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 07 Feb 2025 19:19:01 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=460639 A two-stage promotion process for Air Vice Marshal posts, involving merit-based shortlisting on annual confidential report and board marks followed by seniority-based allocation against vacancies, was described as consistent with a seniority-cum-merit system.
