SERVICES - Temporary relinquishment or promotion under General Rule 45 -
Certain instructions - Issued.
Rule 45 of the General Rules for Andhra Pradesh
State and Subordinate Service Rule, lays down that nothing contained in the
said rules or the Special rules, shall be deemed to require the recognition of
any right or privilege to the extent to which it has been so relinquished. The
expression " to the extent to which it has been so relinquished "occurring
in the said rules admits of a temporary relinquishment of any right. If any individual
had temporarily relinquished his right, it cannot be said that his right for
promotion is permanently extinguished. There is, therefore, no legal objection
to consider him for promotion subsequently. But any promotion subsequently
made, will not give him any right for seniority over the persons who have been
promoted in the meantime during the period when the temporary relinquishment
was in force.
