259(L) of 1996 |

| Decision |
The appeal was dismissed as the claim of non-Matriculates to be placed in B16 was not justified based on the applicable rules and regulations. The court found that the earlier promotion of the appellant to B16 was an error as he did not meet the necessary qualifications. The Deputy Director's issuance of the promotion letter was deemed illegal, and the appeal was without merit. |
| Summary |
In this case, the Federal Service Tribunal addressed the appeal of Inayatullah, who contested his non-placement in B16 due to his non-Matriculate status. The tribunal examined various office orders and memorandums that defined eligibility criteria for promotion within WAPDA. The decision highlighted that non-Matriculates could not be equated with three-year diploma holders for B16 eligibility. The court emphasized that the earlier promotion of the appellant was an error, leading to the cancellation of his promotion and dismissal of his appeal. This case underscores the importance of adhering to established qualification criteria in employment and promotion decisions, particularly within governmental organizations like WAPDA. |
