The petitioner is seeking a writ in the nature of certiorari for quashing the advertisement No.16/2022 (Annexure P-12).
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner is working as Lecturer with respondent No.3 -University. He is fully eligible and qualified for promotion to the post of Reader /Associate Professor. He further submits that normally the post of Reader/Associate Professor is required to be filled by promotion and only in the event of suitable persons not being available for promotion it could be filled by transfer or deputation. He also contends that the case of the petitioner for promotion has been recommended by the Principal of the Institute letter dated 09.10.2021 (Annexure P-5) but respondent No.3 without considering the case of the petitioner has advertised for filling up the post of Reader/Associate Professor through deputation. He also submits that the petitioner has sent a representation in this regard to respondent No.3 (Annexure P-13) who may be directed to consider and decide the same.
Issue notice to the respondents.
