JUDGEMENT

- (1.)IT is seen that the impugned order is based on the judgment of this Court in the case of Union of India and others vs. K.V. Jankiraman and others [1991 (4) SCC 109].

The charge sheet in the criminal case is filed subsequent to the promotion of the respondent. In these circumstances, we are not inclined to interfere with the impugned order. We dismiss this special leave petition leaving open the rights of the State to initiate such action as it deems appropriate in accordance with law. The special leave petition is dismissed.
