ORAL ORDER
(Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ASHWANI KUMAR SINGH)
2 06-01-2020It is submitted by the learned counsel appearing for the Union of India that the Tribunal erroneously passed the impugned order dated 30.07.2019 in O.A.No.814 of 2016. It failed to appreciate that vide Circular dated 14.1.2015 issued by the Department of Post, New Delhi, a new online selection procedure of Gramin Dak Sevaks was framed and vide Circular dated 16.9.2015 issued by the Department of Post, New Delhi it was directed that after 1.4.2015 all the recruitment for Gramin Dak Sevaks shall be in terms of new selection process. He contended that the Tribunal ought to have held that the advertisement issued for appointment of Gramin Dak Sevaks was in breach of the circular dated 14.1.2015 and 16.9.2015 and hence the competent authority rightly stayed the selection Patna High Court CWJC No.25821 of 2019(2) dt.06-01-2020 2/2 procedure.
