had been given promotion for the post of Assistant on 01.06.1978. Since the respondent University by Syndicate resolution dated 16.02.1983, had resolved to give time bound promotion to the incumbents, who had been in long service in particular cadre for more than 7 years in regular post up to senior Superintendent, the petitioner, since had been working in the regular post of Assistant for 7 years, was considered for the said time bound promotion to the post of Superintendent and accordingly, the said time bound promotion was given to him on 01.06.1985. Thereafter, whenever regular vacancy of Superintendent arose, and according to the seniority of the petitioner, he would be absorbed in the regular vacancy to the post of Superintendent. In the case of the petitioner, such a regular promotion to the post of Superintendent had been given to him only on 08.02.1995. Since the petitioner superannuated on 30.06.1995, the further promotion to the post of Senior Superintendent was not given to him. In this regard, the grievance of the petitioner appears to be that some of his juniors, who entered service, after the petitioner's entering into service, had been given promotion up to the level of Senior Superintendent and therefore, if the candidature of the petitioner had been considered by the respondent University for giving regular functional promotion to the post of Superintendent atleast in the year 1992, the petitioner would be further considered for further promotion to the post of Senior Superintendent by way of time bound promotion. Since the petitioner was not considered for the said time bound promotion to the Senior Superintendent, he had approached the respondent University and his request has been rejected by the respondent University by order dated 08.08.2013. Challenging the same, the petitioner has come with this writ petition.
