By way of filing of this instant petition, a prayer has been made by the petitioner, for issuing directions to the respondents, to grant him benefit of out of turn promotion. 2. None has put in appearance on behalf of the petitioner. 3. The contents of the petition indicates that the petitioner was awarded with bronze medal and various other persons namely Laxman Singh Manda and Dinesh Sharma were awarded silver medal, and all of them were granted cash rewards for the same but instead of giving out of turn promotion, an order (Annexure 4) was passed wherein promotion has been granted to one Mahendra Sharma as he won gold medal in sports competition. 4. A comparison has been made with the said Mahendra Sharma and accordingly a prayer has been made for grant of out of turn promotion. [2025:RJ-JP:4390] (2 of 2) [CW-2141/2007] 5. Learned counsel for the State-respondent opposed the contents of the petition and indicates that as per the Standing Order and the Rule prevailing, the case of out of turn promotion was considered only for those candidates who received gold medal and for other candidates who won silver and bronze medal and cash rewards were awarded and accordingly, the petitioner was given cash award of Rs.15,000/- and he has received the same without raising any objection. Hence, under these circumstances, interference of this Court is not warranted. 6. Heard and considered the submissions made at Bar and perused the material available on the record. 7. The sole case of the petitioner is based on the case of one Mahendra Sharma who received the out of turn promotion on the basis of the gold medal but so far as the case of the petitioner is concerned, he has received bronze medal and other candidates namely Laxman Singh Manda & Dinesh Sharma have received silver medal and accordingly, all these persons were granted cash rewards of Rs.15,000/-each and they have accepted the same without any objection at the relevant time. The petitioner cannot claim any parity with one Mahendra Sharma who was granted out of turn promotion as his case was considered only because he has received gold medal. Hence, under these circumstances, this Court finds no merit and substance in this petition. Accordingly, the instant writ petition stands rejected. 8. All pending application(s), if any, also stand dismissed. (ANOOP KUMAR DHAND),J Garima/45
