The issue of the roster point vacancy being debated<br \/>\nin the appeal does not even arise for consideration and we<br \/>\nproceed to note the relevant facts.\n<\/p>\n<p>2.         The respondent had an issue pertaining to the<br \/>\nadverse entries contained in her ACR for the year 2003-04<br \/>\nagainst which she had filed a representation which was<br \/>\nallowed on 17.11.2005 and prior thereto a DPC met to consider<br \/>\nthe departmental candidates working as Assistant Editors for<br \/>\npromotion to the post of Editor and selected one Smt. Sushma<br \/>\nSonak, junior to the respondent.        On 02.11.2005 Sushma<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">LPA 118\/2009                                         Page 1 of 4<\/span><br \/>\n Sonak was issued the letter of promotion. This happened 15<br \/>\ndays prior to respondent&#8217;s representation against adverse<br \/>\nentry in her ACR for the year 2003-04 being allowed.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.         Sushma Sonak resigned on 24.08.2007 and claiming<br \/>\nthat the resultant vacancy, on account of the roster being<br \/>\nmaintained, accrued to the direct recruitment quota the<br \/>\nappellant sought to fill up the vacancy by inviting applications<br \/>\nfrom eligible candidates.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.         The   respondent    filed   a   writ   petition     being<br \/>\nWP(C)No.1829\/2008 praying that the vacancy in question<br \/>\nwhich arose when Sushma Sonak resigned, since she was a<br \/>\npromotee, the resultant vacancy had to be filled up treating<br \/>\nthe same to be in the promotee quota.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.         The appellant opposed the writ petition pleading that<br \/>\nas per the Recruitment Rule, 4 posts of Editor&#8217;s existed; 2 out<br \/>\nof which were assigned to the direct recruit quota and the<br \/>\nremaining 2 to the promotee quota. It was pleaded that the<br \/>\nappellants were maintaining a roster chart and as per the<br \/>\nsame irrespective of source of recruitment of the Editor who<br \/>\nretired, the appellant was filling the vacancies, alternating<br \/>\nbetween promotee and a direct recruit.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.         Vide impugned judgment and order dated 01.09.2008<br \/>\nthe learned Single Judge allowed the writ petition filed by the<br \/>\nrespondent holding that since out of the 4 posts of Editor, 2<br \/>\nwere meant by direct recruits, the vacancy in question caused<br \/>\non account of the resignation of Sushma Sonak had to be filled<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">LPA 118\/2009                                          Page 2 of 4<\/span><br \/>\n up by promotion, since 2 direct recruits were working as<br \/>\nEditors.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.         The appellants urge that the learned Single Judge<br \/>\nignored that roster vacancy chart maintained by the appellants<br \/>\nrequiring one vacancy to be filled by promotion and the next<br \/>\nby direct recruitment followed by promotion and then direct<br \/>\nrecruitment and so on.       As per the appellants it was not<br \/>\nmaintaining any schedule of rota:quota.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.         We are of the opinion that the issue is not of<br \/>\nrota:quota or of roster point vacancy chart, but the entitlement<br \/>\nof the respondent to have a review DPC constituted when the<br \/>\nDPC in which Sushma Sonak was selected as a promotee<br \/>\ncandidate for the reason said DPC considered the ACR of the<br \/>\nrespondent      containing   adverse   remarks   against    which<br \/>\nrespondent&#8217;s representation was pending, and as noted<br \/>\nhereinabove, which representation was finally accepted and<br \/>\nadverse entries in the ACR for the year 2003-04 were set<br \/>\naside.     To put it pithily, respondent&#8217;s entitlement had to be<br \/>\nsatisfied by convening a review DPC, for the reason, even if<br \/>\nSushma Sonak had not resigned this ought to have been done.<br \/>\nIn other words, qua the respondent, the clock has to be put<br \/>\nback for the vacancy which got filled when Sushma Sonak was<br \/>\npromoted.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.         But we issue no direction, for the reason, though<br \/>\npertaining to a lien vacancy in which one Sh.H.Nagarajappa<br \/>\nwas promoted as an Editor by treating the lien vacancy as<br \/>\nfalling in the promotee quota, at the DPC held on 12.11.2009,<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">LPA 118\/2009                                        Page 3 of 4<\/span><br \/>\n presided over by Professor Bipan Chandra, Chairman, NBT;<br \/>\nMs.Nuzhat Hassan, Director, CBT; Dr.Bichar Dass; Ex. Director<br \/>\nCentral Translation Bureau; Dr.Suresh Chand, Special Officer,<br \/>\nMHRD; Sh.Amar Mudi, Joint Director, NBT; the candidature of<br \/>\nthe respondent was considered and it was found that the<br \/>\nrespondent could not achieve the Bench mark prescribed. This<br \/>\nselection has not been questioned by the respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.        It is apparent that no useful purpose would be served<br \/>\nin issuing any mandamus to consider the candidature of the<br \/>\nrespondent as a promotee candidate with respect to the<br \/>\nvacancy in question, for the simple reason, we have material<br \/>\non record that the respondent has not achieved the requisite<br \/>\nBench Mark and this material is the DPC as noted above. Even<br \/>\nif we direct a review DPC to be held, it would be an idle<br \/>\nformality, since the result is known.\n<\/p>\n<p>11.        The appeal stands disposed of relieving the appellant<br \/>\nof the mandamus issued by the learned Single Judge and as a<br \/>\nconsequence we dispose of the appeal dismissing the writ<br \/>\npetition filed by the respondent.\n<\/p>\n<p>12.        No costs.\n<\/p>\n<p>                                        (PRADEEP NANDRAJOG)<br \/>\n                                               JUDGE<\/p>\n<p>                                          (SURESH KAIT)<br \/>\n                                              JUDGE<br \/>\nFEBRUARY 17, 2011<br \/>\nmr<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">LPA 118\/2009                                        Page 4 of 4<\/span>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi High Court National Book Trust vs Uma Bansal on 17 February, 2011 Author: Pradeep Nandrajog * IN THE HIGH COURT OF DELHI AT NEW DELHI % Date of Order : 17th February, 2011 + LPA No.118\/2009 NATIONAL BOOK TRUST &#8230;..
