Judgment text as reported

MUHAMMAD AMJAD VS The DIRECTOR GENERAL, QUETTA DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY Promotion---'Eligibility' and 'fitness' of candidate---Scope---Though promotion is not a vested right, but it depends on the eligibility as well as fitness of the candidate---Concept of eligibility implies a qualification to be appointed or promoted, whereas determination of fitness encompasses a person's competence to be chosen or selected for appointment or promotion subject to the availability of post on which the credentials and antecedents of person could be examined for examining his merits and worthiness for promotion---Neither promotion can take place automatically, nor seniority alone is the deciding factor as a number of factors constitute fitness for promotion.
