As per the details available with Early Times, The Tribunal issued the aforesaid directions after hearing the counsel for applicant Faheem Shokat Butt (Advocate) who appeared on behalf of Mohammad Ashraf Darzi, Joint Director Fisheries before the Hon'ble Tribunal. Through the medium of OA the applicant prayed for quashing of Govt.

The post of Director is specialized post having particular qualification and skills and cannot be manned by any other person who don't have requisite qualifications and skills. Upon hearing the Learned Counsel Mr. Faheem Shokat Butt the Tribunal observed that right of consideration for promotion is a Fundamental right as held by Constitutional Bench of Supreme Court in case titled Ajit Singh Vs. State of Punjab (1999) 7 SCC, 209 and in case of Ajay Kumar Shukla Vs. Arvind Rai. In terms of the said observation the Tribunal disposed of the said O.A by directing the Principal Secretary to Government, Agriculture Production and Fisheries Department, Union Territory of J&K to convene the DPC within 04 weeks and to consider the case of applicant for promotion to the post of Director Fisheries.
