MADAN LAL Vs. STATE OF U P

JUDGEMENT

(1.) BRIJESH Kumar, J. This petition has been preferred against the order of the U. P. Public Services Tribunal rejecting the application of the petitioner for interim relief moved in a claim petition filed by the petitioner before the Tribunal against the order of cancellation of his promotion. The Tribunal relying upon Section 5-B of the U. P. Public Services Tribunal Act ex pressed the view that since no interim relief can be granted in the matters relat ing to reduction in rank or reversion of a public servant, therefore, it had no juris diction to allow the application for interim relief.

(2.) WE have heard the learned Coun sel for the petitioner and the learned State Counsel and they agree that since the question involved is short, the petition itself may be finally disposed of at this stage.
