16th February, 2016 shall not be acted upon.”

Whereas, other incumbents also approached the HHC in this regard

in SWP No. 342/2016, MP No. 1/2016 titled Mushtaq Ahmad Wani Vs.

State and Ors. The Hon’ble High Court by an interim order passed the

following direction dated 26-02-2016 which reads as :

“Meanwhile, subject to the objections from the other side and

till next date of hearing, order dated 16-02-2016 shall not be

affected qua petitioners.”

Whereas, the Hon’ble High Court disposed of the writ petitions SWP

No. 434/2016 c/w SWP No. 342/2016 vide its order dated 30-01-2018.

The operative part of the order reads as :

“24. ……….There is no scope for any interference with the

order impugned. However, when the process for promotion

will be initiated in that eventuality if the petitioners also fall

within the zone of consideration, their experience, which shall

be recognized under rules, shall also be taken note of.

25. Petition succeeds, is disposed of as above along with

connected petition”.

Whereas, the seniority list of HDOs issued vide Government Order

No. 56-Agri of 2016 dated 16-02-2016 was tentative containing the names

of HDOs appointed in the years 2001 and 2008 only. At that time

objections were sought from the members of the service within 15 days

from the date of issuance of the tentative seniority list but in the meantime

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

the Hon’ble High Court vide its order dated 3-3-2016 directed not to act on

the said seniority list as such the objections so received by the department

had not been examined in view of Court direction ; and

Whereas, a considerable time has since been elapsed and in

the meantime more candidates were appointed in the years 2010, 2011

and 2012 on the recommendations of Public Service Commission vide

Government Order Nos. 18-Agri of 2010 dated 08-02-2010, 241-Agri

of 2011 dated 11-08-2011 and 53-Agri of 2012 dated 08-02-2012, therefore,

the department decided to issue a revised tentative seniority list incorporating

also the appointees of the years 2010, 2011 and 2012, so that a revised

tentative seniority list of HDOs appointed after the year 2001 till date is

notified strictly on the basis of merit obtained by the candidates in the

selection process/list furnished by JKPSC strictly as per the rule 24 of the

Jammu and Kashmir Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal)

Rules, 1956 ; and

Whereas, a tentative seniority list of the HDOs/Assistant Analyst as it

stood on 31-01-2018 was issued vide Government Order No. 20-Horti of

2018 dated 28-02-2018, and the same was uploaded on the official website

of Horticulture Department. A notice was also issued under endorsement

No. Horti/27/2017, dated 20-03-2018 and the same was published in the

newspapers for information of all the concerned inviting objections, if any,

on the tentative seniority list uploaded on the official website, within 30

days ; and

Whereas, objections were received in respect of the Tentative Seniority

List issued by the Department which were examined in light of Rule 24 of

J&K Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal Rules), 1956, and

necessary changes with regard to the objections which were found valid and

based on facts, have been incorporated in the final seniority list.
