VALMIKI J. MEHTA, J (ORAL)

  1. This writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution India is filed by two petitioners, Sh. Tule Ram Yadav being petiti no.1 and Sh. Jailal Yadav being petitioner no.2. Petitioners claim their pay scales as per the 4th Pay Commission Report should have fixed at Rs.1640-2900/- but the respondents have wrongly fixed their pay in the scale of Rs.1400-2600/-.

  2. In the counter affidavit filed by the respondents, respondents have specifically pleaded that pay scales of the petitioners

    have been fixed not at Rs.1400-2600/- w.e.f 1.1.1986 as pleaded by petitioners, but, pay scale of both the petitioners was fixed at Rs.1640-2900/- and which is the claim prayed by the petitioners. In fact, in counter affidavit the respondents have stated that the salary of petitioner no.1 was fixed at Rs.2060/- w.e.f 1.1.1986, Rs.2120/- w.e.f

  4. Accordingly, petitioners having already been granted reliefs as claimed in this writ petition and their pay scales have been rightly fixed as per the 4th Pay Commission Report, no further relief be granted to the petitioners because respondents have specifically pleaded and filed documents to show payment to the petitioners as the 4th Pay Commission Report.

  5. There is another reason for dismissing of the writ petition because petitioner no.1/Sh. Tule Ram Yadav retired on 31.3.1996 petitioner no.2/Sh. Jailal Yadav retired on 30.6.2001. This writ petition however has been filed only much later in May, 2005, and therefore, the reliefs claimed by the petitioners are clearly barred by limitation, because in order to succeed, the petitioners had to challenge a specific order allegedly...
