ORDER
Heard learned AGA.
2. The petitioner-Deputy Commissioner of Police,
Western Division, Bengaluru City is before this Court being
aggrieved by the order passed in Application Nos.5856 to
5859 of 2020 whereby, the Tribunal has been pleased to
issue the following directions by allowing the applications.
"(i) The applications are hereby allowed.
(ii) The impugned order of the respondent being Sibbandi- 2/347/DPC(Pa)/2013 dated 13/11/2020 as at Annexure-A1 is quashed.
(iii) In view of the fact that the impugned order is completely dehors the Rules, the appellants are entitled to costs of this Litigation that has been thrust in them. We place the costs at Rs.1250/- for each applicant, payable by the respondent within three months from the date of this order.
(iv) It shall be ensured by the respondent that Recoveries if any made from the applicants shall be repaid with interest at the extant rate already determined by the government for delayed payments.
(v) The Registrar shall make available a copy of this order to the DGP along with copies of the Tribunal judgments in the cases cited in this order."
3. It is fairly submitted by the learned AGA that
similarly situated petitioners had approached this Court in
W.P.No.10222/2019 aggrieved by the aforesaid order. A
Coordinate Bench of this Court by order dated
18/06/2021 was pleased to allow the writ petition and was
pleased to direct as under:
"The order dated 16/02/2018 passed by the Tribunal in application No.10783/2016 connected with application Nos.10784/2016, 10785/2016 is seta side and the respondents are directed to revise the pay fixation of the petitioners keeping in view the revised last pay certificate issued in their favour by the office of the Pay Account Officer (ORS) AOC, Secunderabad-15. The exercise of revising their pay and the grant of benefits shall be concluded within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order."
4. It is further submitted by the learned AGA that
aggrieved by the order passed by the Coordinate Bench of
this Court in W.P.No.10222/2019, the State has preferred
an appeal before the Hon'ble Apex Court and that the same
has been registered as SLA (C) No.15515/2021 wherein the
Hon'ble Apex Court has been pleased to pass an interim
order of stay by order dated 08/10/2021 and copy of the
same has been placed before this Court.
5. Having heard the learned AGA and keeping in
view the fact that the issue has already been ceased of by
the Hon'ble Apex Court, we are of the considered opinion
that the instant writ petition could be disposed off by
directing implementation of the orders passed in
Application Nos.10783/2016, 10784/2016 and
10785/2016 further subjecting the re-fixation to be
contingent on the order that may be passed by the Hon'ble
Apex Court in pending SLA (C) No.15515/2021. The writ
petition is disposed off accordingly.
6. In the event, the respondents are aggrieved, it
is open for them to approach this court and seek for
recalling or reviewing the order.
