| Decision |
The Federal Service Tribunal ruled in favor of the appellant, Parvez Iqbal, stating that he had been encadred in the cadre of LDC/Meter Reader effective from September 17, 1985. The tribunal found that the orders issued by the Superintending Engineer could not be rescinded without the appellant's consent. The appellant was initially appointed as LDC and later temporarily assigned duties of Meter Reader, which the tribunal recognized as a legitimate encadrement. The decision annulled the order which reverted him to the post of LDC, allowing him to count his seniority from the date he was encadred as LDC/Meter Reader. |
