Order On Board
24.09.2021
1. The limited grievance which the petitioner has raised in the present writ
petition is the benefits which arise, by virtue of the order passed by this
Court in the case of Mukesh Kumar Patel & another Vs. State of
Chhattisgarh & another, WPS No. 2530/2017 decided on 28.11.2017
as regards granting of the benefit of revised pay scale on completion of
8 years of service.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the grievance which
now remains is that the benefit is being provided to the petitioner
prospectively and though the respondents have made a calculation
which the petitioner was entitled from the date of her completion of 8
years of service but no effective order has been passed nor the
department has taken any step for releasing the arrears of payment.
The petitioner prays for an appropriate direction to the respondents for
releasing the said amount.
3. Without entering into the merits of the case and taking into
consideration the judgment of this Court in the case of Mukesh Kumar
Patel (Supra) which has also been affirmed by the Division Bench and
also taking note of the fact that the respondents have complied with the
order to the extent of granting revised pay scale to the petitioner, let the
respondents 3 & 4 take an appropriate decision at the earliest as
regards releasing of the arrears of payment which the petitioner is
entitled for. Expecting a decision from the respondents within a period
of 90 days from the date of receipt of copy of this order, the writ petition
stands disposed of.
