Seeking revaluation of answrrsheet for promotion exam
I am a retired Army Officer. I had attempted a promotion exam in Oct 2015 while serving in the Army. The result showed me failed in Military History paper due to which I was not promoted to Lt . Colonel. In May 2016, I retired.
After retirement I filed RTI for copy of my answerheet which was outrightly denied by Army. Chief Information Commission while considering my 2nd appeal, quashed Army's request that my answersheet was evaluated on thr basis of the grading assigned by my superiors in my annual performance report so the answersheet becomes CLASSIFIED document and cannot be disclosed to me. They filed a petition citing above reason in Delhi HC asking stay against CIC order to issue me the answersheet. The Hon'ble Court rejected the petition.
I had filed a case for revaluation in Armed Forces Tribunal, kochi citing the submission of Army before Delhi HC and CIC. I had cited reply of Army to my RTI wherein Army had agreed evaluating answersheet of promotion exam on the basis annual performance report is contrary to existing rules in Army.
Kindly express your views whether Tribunal will agree to revaluation finding injustice done or should I plead for moderation of 10% (as per 2019 verdict of Hon'ble SC in Punjab and Haryana HC judicial exam) marks.
