HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN
JODHPUR
D.B. Civil Writ No. 2810/2014

Ram Swaroop Josh

Versus

Union Of India And Ors.

–Respondent

For Petitioner(s)            : Mr. Dinesh Ojha

For Respondent(s)        : Mr. Vipul Singhvi.

HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. PRADEEP NANDRAJOG
HON’BLE DR. JUSTICE PUSHPENDRA SINGH BHATI

Order

05/09/2018

  1. Heard learned counsel for the parties-:
  2. Case of the writ petitioner is thaCconcededly Ramesh Chand junior to him and thus ad per the petitioner his pay needs to be stepped up on the principle that a junior cannot receive salary more than the senior Counsel cited the decision reported as (2009 1 SCC (L&S) 578 Gurcharan Singh Grewal & ors, vs. Punjab State Electricity Board & ors.

The decision is an authority on the point on which it is rendered keeping in view the facts of the case. The decision of the Supreme Court concerns an anomaly when difference in increments in the scale resulted in a junior getting more pay than the senior.

3. In the instant case what has happened as noted by the Tribunal that the writ petitioner earned a promotion on 17.11.1995. He sought for and was granted one increment in the pay-scale applicable i.e. Rs.800-1150. Ramesh Chand was to be promoted on 22.11.1995 but due to being on leave he joined on 18.02.1996. By then the revised pay-scale of Rs.2550-3200 had come into being. Thus, the benefit of the increment granted to the Ramesh Chand Soni was in the revised pay-scale. it is apparent that the petitioner did not opt for date of his increment to be deferred. If he done so he would be got same benefit as Ramesh Chand Soni.

4. The Tribunal has correctly noted that that the anomaly is not on account of promotion but on account of the fixation of pay in the new pay-scale.

5. The writ petition is dismissed.
