Article-113 read with
Administrative Tribunals Act, 1980
Relating to transfer of a government Servant
It may be argues that the Administrative Tribunal had no authority to order of stay or injunction hut when a person is transferred from one place to another he is to follow or abide be that order. If by the order of transfer any terms and conditions of service is violated his remedy lies before the Administrative Tribunal. But it cannot be a ground to issue and order of stay by the High Court Division only on the ground that the Administrative Tribunal had no authority to pass any such order.

Articles-115, 133 and 136
Separate Judicial Public Service Commission
Articles 133 and 136 are general provision but article 115 is a special condition. This power of the President cannot be obliterated when Palrliment makes or exhausts its exercises under Article 136. The President is not empowered to act under the proviso to Article 133 when he is required to do under Article 1 15. The Parliament in exercise of its power under Article 136 cannot usurp the primary rule making power of the President under Article 115. Article 136 will always have to be read keeping in view the fact that the reorganization of the services cannot be allowed by amalgamating or unifying the judicial service with any civil administrative executive services. Article 133 or Article 136 does not authorize the Parliament or the President to minimize the independence of the subordinate judiciary resorting to subordinate legislation or rules. Security of salary and other recommendation of the members of the judicial service is ensured through the financial independence of the judiciary and as such there-should be a completely different pay commission to determine the grade, scale of pay of the members of the judicial service.

Article-133 Read with Bangladesh Agricultural Development Corporation Service Regulations 1968
(As Amended 1990)
It is true that there is no right of promotion but it is also true that an employee has a right to be considered of promotion, which is a condition of his service. Article 133 of the constitution gives the authority power to regulate the appointment and ser\e conditions of persons in the service of the republic. But it does not give power to prohibit promotion beyond the provision of law. The term “regulate” is not complementary to the term “prohibition” Therefore, none of the provisions of BADC Service Regulations. 1990 is to be read to impose prohibition on the promotion of the writ petitioner respondent to the post of the Superintending Engineer as a right had already accrued to him under BADC Service Regulations. 1968.
