A judge has rejected a plea by 50 principal meteorological technologists to compel the Environment ministry to promote them after they were left out while their colleagues in the same cadre were moved to a higher job rank.
The 50 technologists had accused the ministry of discrimination after they were left out while others were moved from job group ‘N’ to ‘P’, in June 2021. They were in a group of 170 technologists promoted in 2017 but 156 were later moved up the ranks on June 9, 2021.
