(2) Subject to the provisions of sub-rule (3) below, permanent officers of each grade shall be ranked senior to persons who are officiating in that grade.
(3) Direct Recruits.—Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-rule (2) above, the relative seniority of all direct recruits shall be determined by the order of merit in which they are selected for such appointment, on the recommendations of the selecting authority; persons appointed as a result of an earlier selection being senior to those appointed as a result of a subsequent selection:

Provided further that a person who does not join within the specified period shall lose his seniority according to the select list and shall rank in the seniority next to the person who joined earler:
Provided further that he shall not lose his seniority, if the fact of his joining later was caused by the circumstances beyond his control and if the appointing authority is satisfied that this was so.
(4) Promotees.—(0 The relative seniority of persons promoted to the various grades shall be determined in the order of their selection for such promotion:
Provided that where persons promoted initially on a temporary basis are confirmed subsequently in an order different than the order of merit indicated at the time of their promotion, seniority shall follow the order of confirmation and not the original order of merit.

48
E x p l a n a t o r y M e m o r a n d u m
Rule 4(1).—Where promotions are made on the basis of selection by a Departmental Promotion Committee, the seniority of such promotees shall be in the order in which they are recommended for such promotion by the Committee. Where promotions are made on the basis of seniority subject to the rejection of unfit, the seniority of persons considered fit for promotion, at the same time, shall be the same as the relative senioiity in the lower grade from which they are promoted. Where, however, a person is considered as unfit for promotion and is superseded by a junior, such person shall not if he is subsequently found suitable and promoted, take seniority in the higher grade over the junior persons who had superseded him.
Rule 5.—A roster shall be maintained, based on the reservations for direct recruitment and promotion, as provided in the Recruitment and Promotion Rules. Appointments shall be made in accordance with this roster and seniority be determined accordingly.
I l l u s t r a t io n
Where 75% of the vacancies are reserved for promotion and 25% for direct recruitment, each direct recruit shall be ranked in seniority below three promotees, and where 90 % of the posts in service are to be filled up by direct recruitment and 10% from amongst the Junior teachers, each promotee shall be ranked in seniority above 9 direct recruits.
