The Supreme Court allowed Mahavir Singh's appeal against his reversion from Driver to Peon. Singh was promoted to Driver in 1995 without any qualification requirements, but was reverted in 1996 when new rules mandating middle school examination qualification were introduced. The Court held that qualifications cannot be retroactively applied and set aside the High Court's order, quashing the reversion and upholding the promotion as valid.
