    Summary of CWP/19/2023 - Bharat Bhushan Sharma vs. NIT Hamirpur The High Court of Himachal Pradesh allowed the petition and quashed NIT's rejection of the teacher's Career Advancement Scheme (CAS) promotion to Associate Professor. The court ruled that the 30.04.2013 cutoff date was procedurally binding (not an eligibility criterion), and since the Supreme Court previously confirmed the petitioner's eligibility, the respondents' subsequent denial based on lacking three years' service before that cutoff was illegal and arbitrary. Petitioner entitled to benefits with effect from due date. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
