casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Vinod Giri Goswami v. State of Uttarakhand The Supreme Court ruled that promotee Deputy Collectors in Uttarakhand cannot claim seniority credit for their ad hoc appointments made in 2004, reversing the High Court's 2011 judgment. The Court held that since the ad hoc promotions violated recruitment rules by bypassing proper selection procedures, they constitute stop-gap arrangements excluded from seniority calculations, and the Office Memorandum determining quota allocations was correctly upheld. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
