FIle an application in the pending SLP before the Supreme Court seeking direction for providing increment as the same is not a matter which is sub-judice before the Court. the promotion cannot be linked with trasnfer and once the promotion is due, the same shall be duly granted unless there is specific order for maintaining status quo by a proper court of law.
