I. Chuba Jamir & Ors vs State Of Nagaland & Ors on 17 July, 2009

"16. The petitioners have assailed Rules 9 and 12 of the 1966 Rules on the ground that they do not specifically provide for promotion of a Junior Engineer (Civil) to the post of Sub-Divisional Engineer (Civil) after attaining the higher qualification of AMIE, etc. as is provided for in Rule 7(3)(ii) of the 1966 Rules. The underline premise on which such submission is made is that the eligibility for promotion having been acquired by the incumbent, he becomes entitled 12 of 20 ::: Downloaded on - 24-02-2026 20:28:41 ::: CWP-17713-2021& connected matters -13- to be promoted. This premise, however, has no sanctity in law. It is by now well settled that mere eligibility does not confer any right of promotion for the incumbent. We may refer to the judgment of the Supreme Court in I. Chuba Jamir and others vs The State of Nagaland and others 2009 (15) SCC 169, wherein it has been held as under: -

Shailendra Dania & Others vs S.P. Dubey & Others on 17 April, 2007

21. Coming to the issue of promotion, Mr. Sanjiv Gupta learned counsel for the petitioner, has placed reliance upon the judgment of Supreme Court in Shailendra Dania and others vs S. P. Dubey and others ; 2007 (5) SCC 535 to buttress petitioner's claim for promotion. In this case promotion to the post of Assistant Engineer was from separate channels of Junior Engineers possessing diploma and degree. 50% posts were to be filled up by direct recruitment, while 50% were to be filled by way of promotion. 50% promotion quota was equally divided between Junior Engineers possessing degree on completion of 3 years of service after obtaining Engineering Degree and 8 years' service for the diploma holders. The Supreme Court after analyzing the service rules held that service experience required for promotion from the post of Junior Engineer to the post of Assistant Engineer by a degree holder in the limited quota of degree holder Junior Engineers cannot be equated with the service rendered as a diploma holder nor can be substituted for service rendered as a degree holder. When the claim is made for a fixed quota, the condition necessary for becoming eligible for promotion has to be complied with. The two channels of promotion were held to be watertight compartments and a respective claim for promotion had to be made with reference to its specific quota. Neither a diploma holder Junior Engineer could 15 of 20 ::: Downloaded on - 24-02-2026 20:28:41 ::: CWP-17713-2021& connected matters -16- claim promotion in the quota of degree holder, nor can a degree holder Junior Engineer make any claim for promotion for the quota fixed for diploma holder. This principle laid down by the Supreme Court does not advance the cause of the present petitioners. There is no separate quota earmarked for promotion for degree holders vis-àvis diploma holders. The criteria for promotion herein is seniority-cummerit. Thus, the promotion can be offered to those who are senior and possess the eligibility and promotional post is available for them. It has not been shown by the petitioners that any ineligible person junior to them is promoted.

Union Of India & Ors vs N.R. Banerjee & Ors on 16 December, 1996

24. Reliance is also placed upon judgment of the Supreme Court in Union of India and others vs N.R. Banerjee and others 1997 (9) SCC 287. This decision arose out of a direction issued by the Tribunal to constitute a Departmental Promotion Committee and to take confidential reports of the eligible candidates for a particular year. This direction was issued as the employees were to retire in the year 1994. Therefore, the confidential report of 1993 was to be looked into and not the confidential reports of 1994. This judgment has no applicability to the facts of the present case.
