It is the case of the petitioner that the petitioner No.1
Sharmila Das joined in service on 09.02.2007 and the petitioner
No.2 Manju Jamatia joined on 12.02.2007 as Post Graduate
Teacher in grant-in-aid school under Government of Tripura. But
one Pranab Bhowmik and Prasen Ghosh joined after the
petitioners in the service on 29.10.2007. But from the salary slips
of the petitioners in the month of August 2025 it appears that the

Rs.55,200/- whereas the authority has shown the basic pay of the
said Pranab Bhowmik and Prasen Ghosh @Rs.57,300/-. As a result
of which the present petitioners are getting lesser amount than of
those persons who joined the service later on than that of the
present petitioners. Hence this writ petition is filed for seeking
parity of pay.

Learned Sr. G.A. Mr. P. Gautam appears and accepts notice
for the respondents No.1-3, issuance of formal notice is thus
waived.
The petitioner may take steps for service of notice upon the
respondent No.4 within seven days both by normal process and
also by registered A/D post or speed post within seven days and
file proof of service.
List this matter on 06.05.2026.
