The reversion was based perhaps on the ground that the respondent was number duly qualified to hold the post of Medical Officer in the dispensary in view of the bar imposed either by the Central Act or by the State Act.
This is an appeal from a, decision of the High Court of Orissa which allowed the claim of the respondent for appointment as a Medical Officer in Homeopathic Dispensary.
The validity of reversion was challenged before the High Court by means of a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution.
After companying into force of the Central Act, the respondent was reverted to his original post of Distributor.
The State being aggrieved by the High Court decision has appealed to this Court.
The respondent was originally holding the post of Distributor and thereafter he was appointed as Medical Officer in a Homoeopathic Dispensary.
There were several other petitions filed by the similarly reverted persons.
