                                                  16.02.2009

                                                   ORDER

1. Delay condoned.

2. Leave granted.

3. In our view, these appeals are now concluded by the decision of this Court in the case of
State of Punjab

4. Following the aforesaid decision i.e. State of Punjab of this Court, the impugned order was
passed by the High Court, in which the High Court had allowed the petition of the
respondent by making the following directions :-

        "However, keeping in view the order passed by the Supreme Court in Inter Singh case
        (supra) we direct that if within thirty days from today, the respondent opts to seek
        voluntary retirement from the post of sub Inspector, then his request be accepted and
        he be retired from that post. If he fails to give option, then the respondent shall be
        deemed to have been reverted to his parent cadre in District Gurgaon on the post of
        Head Constable. In that event, he will be entitled to retain the promoted post of sub
        Inspector and will have to stand in queue for being considered for promotion from the
        dates his juniors in the parent cadre were promoted and that too after undergoing the
        requisite course and passing the prescribed examinations."

5. In view of the aforesaid decision of this Court, which squarely covers the present appeals,
we dismiss these appeals. There will be no order as to costs.
