2014 (12) TMI 1287 - SC - Indian LawsBenefit of reservation to the employees of the society in the matter of their promotion - appeal by South Central Railway Employees Co-Op. Credit Society Employees’ Union - Held that:- Once this Court in SOUTH CENTRAL RAILWAY EMPLOYEES CO-OPERATIVE CREDIT SOCIETY Versus REGISTRAR OF CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETIES [1998 (1) TMI 510 - SUPREME COURT] had decided that the employees of the Society were not entitled to promotion on the basis of any reservation policy, the High Court could not have come to a different conclusion, when the judgment delivered by this Court above was sought to be implemented by issuance of an order dated 12th June, 1998 and the High Court had committed a grave error by setting aside the said order dated 12th June, 1998. If the view taken by the High Court is accepted, in our opinion, there would be total chaos in this country because in that case there would be no finality to any order passed by this Court. When a higher court has rendered a particular decision, the said decision must be followed by a subordinate or lower court unless it is distinguished or overruled or set aside. The High Court had considered several provisions which, in its opinion, had not been considered or argued before this Court when [1998 (1) TMI 510 - SUPREME COURT] was decided.
