3 4.2.2011 Heard learned counsel for the State.

The petitioner was appointed as Assistant Teacher in a

primary school in the year 1976. The writ application has been

filed praying that he may be promoted as the Headmaster of the

school in question.

Nobody appears for the petitioner to press this

application. However, it appears from the pleading that the

petitioner would have retired by now and the ground for seeking

promotion to the post of Headmaster is that somebody junior to

him had been granted the promotion. The promotion on the post

of Headmaster is given on the basis of seniority as well as

vacancy. There are no pleadings to justify that there was a

vacancy and the date on which the petitioner is seeking promotion

to the post of Headmaster.

I, therefore, find no merit in this writ application and it

is accordingly dismissed.

           Sanjay                                                          ( Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
