----Petitioners

For Petitioner(s) : Mr. Ashish Kumar, Advocate with Mr. Shubhankit Bhatnagar, Advocate
HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. PANKAJ MITHAL HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANOOP KUMAR DHAND
Order
11/11/2022
Heard learned counsel for the petitioners-Union of India &
others.
The petition is directed against the judgment and order of
the Central Administrative Tribunal dated 18.01.2022.
The pay of the respondent was amended/reduced just before
his retirement and since the earlier fixation was said to be by
mistake, proceedings for recovery of the excess amount paid were
initiated against him. The aforesaid action including the
reduction/amendment in the pay was challenged by the
respondents by means of an Original Application.
The application has been allowed and in view of the decision
of the Supreme Court in the case of State of Punjab Versus Rafiq
Masih (Whitewasher) (SLP (c) No.11648/2012), the Tribunal held
that no recovery can be made and that he should get his post
retiral dues and benefits according to the unamended/unreduced
pay.
(2 of 2) [CW-16485/2022]
The submission of learned counsel for the petitioners is that
the Tribunal has not set aside the order amending/reducing the
pay and so long the said order stands and the pay of the
respondent stands reduced, he would not be entitled to any retiral
dues as per the unamended pay.
Issue notice to the respondents, returnable within six weeks.
Till the next date of listing, the effect and operation of the
impugned judgment and order dated 18.01.2022 passed by the
Central Administrative Tribunal shall remain stayed insofar as it
directs for the payment of retiral dues to the respondents as per
actual pay and not as per the amended/reduced pay.
