As per case facts, Respondents, initially Semi Professional Assistants and then Professional Assistants, sought promotion to Assistant Librarian. The University decided to fill these posts through 100 perent direct recruitment,
...citing UGC Regulations, and issued advertisements. Respondents filed Writ Petitions, contending that existing recruitment rules allowed 50 percent promotion. The Single Judge partially allowed their petitions, directing the University to consider them for promotion and prepare a roster, noting that a junior PwD candidate had been promoted. The University appealed, arguing that UGC directives mandated 100% direct recruitment and its Executive Council had the power to amend recruitment methods. The question arose whether the University's resolution for 100 perent direct recruitment, without formally amending existing recruitment rules allowing 50% promotion, was valid under the Jamia Act, Statutes, Ordinances, and Regulations, especially given the contradictory promotion of a junior. Finally, the Court dismissed the appeal, upholding the Single Judge's Judgment. It found no formal amendment to the recruitment rules and deemed the University's promotion of a junior PwD candidate inconsistent with its stance of 100 percent direct recruitment, confirming that existing promotion rules remained applicable. The University was directed to comply with the Single Judge's orders.
