During the course of hearing, learned counsel for the petitioner
submits that the petitioner in alternative had argued that he was entitled to be promoted as Chief Public Prosecutor with effect from 2nd May, 2010 as by
then he fulfilled the requirement of five years of continuous service, but he was promoted as Chief Public Prosecutor on 16th November, 2011. He also submits that in case the first prayer is allowed, the petitioner may be entitled to back wages for the said period. Learned counsel states that he would move a review application and also plead that prayer No. (c) has not been adjudicated. Without expressing any opinion on the maintainability of the
review application and merits of the contentions raised, we dismiss the
present writ petition as withdrawn with liberty as prayed for.
