54. Likewise, in OA No. 1171 of 2020 (Rajeev Thappa & Ors.
v. UT of J&K)  the same Bench allowed the application,
quashing the tentative seniority list and the impugned
promotion orders that had granted notional anterior dates to
certain private respondents. The operative order directed that
"each applicant's promotion shall take effect from the date he
has been formally put in charge," that a fresh seniority list be
issued accordingly, and that consequential service benefits be
granted within eight weeks.
