enquiry report where the finding of fact is
that there is no material to show that the
record in question had been handed over
by T.B. Singh to the petitioner. Hence the
Tribunal has clearly made an observation
(quoted above) which is baseless. We
have therefore to hold that the original
record in question has not been handed
over by Sri T.B. Singh to the petitioner
and there was no material to show that
that was done.

6. In view of the above finding of
the enquiry officer the impugned order of
the Tribunal dated 20.9.2002 as well as
the order of the Deputy Commissioner
Trade Tax dated 18.10.2000 and order of
the Commissioner Trade Tax U.P. dated
19.5.2001 are vitiated in law and are
hereby set a side and the impugned orders
are quashed.

7. The petition is allowed. The
petitioner shall be reinstated within a
month of production of a certified copy of
this order before the authority concerned
in accordance with law. He shall also be
paid back salary from the date of
termination to the date of reinstatement
and such payment shall be made within
two months of production of a certified
copy of this order before the authority
concerned.

working since then. 12 posts of Assistant
Excise Commissioner fell vacant in
December 2000, which were to be filled
in by promotion from Excise Inspectors.
The petitioner made a representation vide
Annexure 3 to the writ petition requesting
for promotion. He was awarded special
entry for the calendar year 1990-91 and
1991-92.

3. However, he was not considered
for promotion because he was awarded
adverse entries for the years 1994-95 vide
Annexure 4 the petitioner filed a writ
petition, being writ petition no. 15315 of
1996 which is pending in this Court and
the impugned adverse entry has been
stayed vide order dated 1.5.1996.

4. As regards the two adverse entries
for the year 1995-96, dated 10.10.1996
and 24.12.1996, vide Annexures 5 and 6,
one was awarded because he did not
participate in the meeting of 19.7.1996,
and the other because he did not
participate in the meeting of 14.12.1996
along with the register. The petitioner
made representations against these entries
vide
Annexure

The
petitioners'
representations against those entries have
been allowed and those entries have been
quashed, vide orders dated 12.5.2001,
Annexure 7 to the petition.

5. A counter affidavit has been filed
by the respondents and we have perused
the same. It has been admitted in
paragraph 10 of the same that in view of
G.O. dated 4.5.1995 if a representation is
pending against an adverse entry the said
adverse entry will not come in the way of
promotion. It has also been admitted in
paragraph 8 that the entries for 1995-96
have been deleted.

6. Presently there is no material
against the petitioner since the adverse
entry for 1994-95 has been stayed by this
Court. Hence we allow the writ petition
and direct that the petitioner shall be
considered for promotion as Assistant
Excise Commissioner when the next
D.P.C. meets. However, this order will be
subject to the decision in writ petition no.
