Headnote | Service Law: Pay – Constitution of Pay Grievance Cell – For removal of anomalies in the pay scale of employees in question – Pursuant to recommendations regarding pay-scale of State Government employees in consonance with recommendations made by Central 6th Pay Commission – Initially one man Commission was appointed to remove anomaly in the pay-scale of Public Works Department employees – After accepting the recommendations of One Man Commission, the State later downgraded 52 categories of posts in various Departments to lower pay-scale – Representation by aggrieved employees – State constituted Pay Grievance Redressal Cell (PGRC) for looking into the grievances and consider representation – Writ Petitions – Dismissed by Single Judge of High Court directing the State to reconstitute the PGRC – Writ Appeal – During pendency of Writ Appeal, PGRC constituted, it considered several representations and gave its recommendations, which were implemented by the State by G.O. No. 242 dated 22.7.2013 – G.O. No. 242 was also challenged in Writ Petition – Disposing of the writ petitions and writ appeals, Division Bench of High Court held that reduction in pay-scale was without following principle of natural justice hence directed the State to constitute a ‘Pay Grievance Redressal Committee’ to analyse and consider the case – Appeal by the employees as well as the State to Supreme Court – Held: Recommendations of the One Man Commission were found to be anomalous – If the State government constituted the PGRC to address those anomalies, such decision by itself cannot be found to be illegal or invalid – Prescription of pay-scale and assessment in that behalf being a complex matter need to be assessed by experts– Therefore, there is no error in the impugned order directing constitution of PGRC. |
