K. Samantaray vs National Insurance Co. Ltd on 12 September, 2003
84. As per the Hon’ble Supreme Court in K.Samantaray Vs.
National Insurance Company Limited, (2004) 9 SCC 286, nobody has
a right to be promoted. They only have a right to be considered for
promotion. Therefore, though the appellants have wrongly denied
promotion to the rank of a Commandant respondent earlier, it cannot be
helped under the circumstances.
