(1.) Heard.
(2.) The claim of petitioner for grant of Kramonnati was declined by order dated 23.09.2014 (Annexure-P/8). The singular reason assigned is that petitioner's claim was considered in the meeting of Departmental Promotion Committee but he was not found eligible because he could not achieve the benchmark fixed for grant of requisite benefit.
(3.) The department by filing reply has reiterated the same stand and contended that petitioner's grading based on last five years' ACRs were below the benchmark, hence, he did not get the benefit.
