Judgment
The following Order of the Court was delivered : Application for impleadment is dismissed as withdrawn. E Leave granted. We decline to express any opinion on merits since M.P. Sharma, who was appointed to an additional pos_t as a general candidate pursuant to the direction issued by the High Coui;t in Writ Petition No. 13700/90, on July 8, 1990 while the appellant was regularly selected by the Public Service F Commission and appointed earlier to him,. is not made a party to these proceedings. The main thrust of the argument is on in.terse seniority between the appellant and M.P. Sharma. But in the abse_nce of M.P. Sharma being impleaded as a party respondent to these proceedings, we cannot go into the question. Under these circumstances, we do find that though the High Court G dismissed the writ petition in limine, it would be open to the appellant to approach the High Court, if so advised, to file a fresh writ petition impleading the affected parties and seek his remedy according to law. The appeal is dismissed accordingly. No costs. GN. Appeal dismissed. H 157
