Vinodanand Yadav vs State Of Bihar on 10 March, 2010
"31. This Court in Vinodanand Yadav v. State of
Bihar held on an issue regarding the inter se seniority
among the direct recruits and promotees the Court
applying the ratio of State of Bihar v. Akhouri Sachindra
Nath held that the appellants who were direct recruits
shall be considered senior over the promotees not borne
on the cadre when the direct recruits were appointed in
service. Hence the gradation list drawn under which
promotees were given seniority over direct recruits could
not be sustained and was thereby set aside."
