1. Chargesheet can be quashed provided that there is no prima facie case against you for any of the charges.
2. In fact promotion ought not to have been withheld just due to filing of FIR. I dont know if you were arrested in the matter. But arrest of a govt servant in a crime may become a hurdle in his career.

Quashing of charge sheet is allowed only in rarest of rare cases as the Court is supposed to exercise this power very sparingly.

Though law does not provide for withholding of promotion but pendency pf a criminal case does pose a grave threat in the career graph of an employee.
