Judgement
Final para: Recruitment Rule clearly provides that the posts of Inspector shall be filled up 33.34% by way of direct recruitment through staff selection commission and 66.66% by way of promotion through LDC examination.The Postmasters constitute a separate cadre in the rules. When there is no ex facie/express provision in the rules permitting such of the employees who qualified and appointed as Postmaster Gr1, to appear at the IPO exam, eliminating them from the zone of consideration can not be faulted with.
For discussions made above , we have no hesitation to hold that this OA has no legs to stand and thus, the OA stands dismissed by leaving the parties to bear their own costs.
