majority of the resultant vacancies were filled up in the ratio of 75:25 from LDCs to UDCs. Hence, on the purported exercise of identifying the resultant 2151 vacancies, in addition to the promotions already effected from 2003-2009, there could not have been another 75 per cent promotions by relaxation, treating the total resultant vacancies as 2151.

We direct the first respondent to file response to this specific submission after factual verification of the promotions effected during the years 2003-2009 within four weeks.

It is open to learned counsel for the petitioners to file reply to the above within two weeks thereafter.

Post this matter after six weeks.
