Shri Ashutosh Pandey, Panel Lawyer Hon'ble Shri Justice P. Sam Koshy Order On Board 19/07/2018 The limited grievance which the petitioner has raised in the present writ petition is that in spite of the petitioner being senior to respondent no.3, the respondents with malafide intention denying the petitioner's rightful claim has given charge of the division to respondent no.3 who is junior to the petitioner.
