Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith. Heard finally
considering the short issue involved.
2. The petitioner who was working as Assistant Professor at
the respondent no. 5-College seeks a direction for being paid her regular
salary for duties discharged by her from September 2016 to April 2018
as per the recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission.
3. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that Writ
Petition No. 4449 of 2019 pertaining to similarly situated Assistant
Professors from the same College was decided by this Court on
11.12.2019 and directions were issued to pay arrears of salary as per the
recommendation of the Sixth Pay Commission.
4. This fact is not disputed by the learned Counsel for the
respondent nos. 4 and 5. It is, however, submitted that the amount of
Rs.4,57,785/- is due and payable to the petitioner as per calculations of
respondent no. 5.
5. Since we find that the petitioner is similarly situated as the
petitioners in Writ Petition No. 4449 of 2019, we are inclined to issue
similar directions as issued therein for reasons recorded in the said order.
