In the vacancies caused by the suspension of the liens of these officers appointments should be made on a provisionally substantive basis. Where such an officer is given substantive proforma promotion and confirmed in a super time-scale post in the cadre, while servingin the I.F.S. he would acquire a lien in the post to which he is promoted. Consequently the suspendedlien in the lower post should be terminated and only the lien acquired in the higher post should be permanently suspended so that he does not hold liens on two posts at the same and the promoted officer holding the lower post on a provisionally substantive basis can be appointed to it in asubstantive capacity.
