When the matter is taken up for hearing today, the learned counsel appearing for the Petitioners submits that the Petitioners have been given promotion to the higher post, after filing of the Writ Petition, but still some of them are still in service and hence, the question of seniority is the higher post may remain for consideration and in that event, liberty should be reserved for them to agitate their rights in accordance with law. He has also made an endorsement to that effect in the Court records.
