 Brief of judgment :
 
The applicants who are holding the posts of ASPOs are provided from appearing for the departmental examination for promotion to the post of Sr. Postmasters, and only Inspectors of Posts which is lower grade post than the ASPOs are allowed to appear for the examination and in case they qualify in the examination, they would become seniors to ASPOs, which posts the applicants are holding and would be an anomalous situation. The contention of respondents that the applicants are holding Gazetted posts in the GP of Rs. 4600/- and as such, they need not be allowed to appear for exam cannot be accepted as the GP of Sr. Postmaster is Rs. 4800/-

It is make it clear that the applicants and the persons similarly placed to the applicants, who are holding the post of ASPOs, shall be allowed to compete in the LDCE for promotion to the post of Sr. Postmasters as and when the recruitment take place, subject to other conditions of eligibility being satisfied.
 
CHQ congratulate to all the applicants for their grand success.

  2. Now the Sr postmaster posts will increase and the ASPs will be upgraded to the posts. They have cleverly and cruelly separated HSG-I and Grade-III cadres and are enjoying all the benefits. Even Grade-II postmasters have become against HSG-I cadre. IP strategy worked terrifically
