panel year 2000-01 though the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India in its judgment dt.07.11.2001 in CA No.9643, 9644/1995 opined that the employees working in the posts which are not localized cannot be appointed by transfer to the posts which are organized into local cadres and that such appointments are against the provisions of Presidential Order.

Nos.6068 & 6123 of 2004 issued with reference to the judgment of Hon’ble Apex Court of India on the Presidential Orders 1975 and it is equally applicable to the Commercial Taxes Department, as the issue of appointments for Heads of the Department/Secretariat to the Localised Posts is one and the same as regards ACTOs/Asst. Labour Officers. They requested to review the same right from the date of Presidential Order, 1975.
