With this the government’s appeal has been rejected. It has been directed that the amount deducted from the gratuity rate be returned to the respondent.

Allahabad High Court has given a big decision in an important hearing. During the hearing on Friday also, Allahabad High Court said that the deduction of Sixth Pay Commission dues from the gratuity amount is completely illegal. Heard the appeal challenging the order passed by a bench of Justice Salim Kumar Rai and Justice Surendra Singh. Meanwhile, Rural Development was directed by the Single Judge to pay the amount deducted from gratuity to the respondent.

In such a situation, after the order of the Double Bench, the amount deducted will be paid to the Assistant Engineer working in Rural Development. In the case, the petitioner was posted on the post of Assistant Engineer DRDA Chandauli in the pay scale of Rs 8000 to 13500. The petitioner said that on the basis of his services, he was given revised pay scale as per the recommendation of the Sixth Pay Commission. The arrears of salary were also paid to the petitioner as per the accepted rules of implementation of the recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission.

In this case, a proposal for grant amount was sent to the Commissioner of Rural Development, Uttar Pradesh. Proposals for a grant amount of Rs 44, 56,620 were sent to the state government for payment of outstanding salaries to DRDA employees when implemented as per the Sixth Pay Commission. When this proposal was rejected by the government, the project director was given by the Commissioner of Rural Development to the development agencies in the district village for the payment of employees. Instructions were issued to recover the amount.

After the recovery order was issued by the government, the case was challenged in the court. On which the Allahabad High Court bench, citing the case of Syed Abdul Qadir vs. State of Bihar, said that relief against recovery is given by the court not because of any right of the employees but by exercising judicial discretion to give relief to the employees if the recovery There will be difficulty if an order has been made but if in a given case it is proved that the employees knew that the payment received was more than the amount due or wrong payment was made then in such cases the error can be rectified. Could. In such a case, depending on the circumstances, an order for recovery of the overpaid amount may be issued.

The Court also cited the case of Thomas Daniels vs. State of Kerala. Where the additional amount was not paid to the employees due to any mistake or misrepresentation on the part of the employees but due to an error in the interpretation of the service rules. In such a situation, recovery orders become unjust and arbitrary.

A double bench of the High Court ordered that recovery of 6th Pay Commission dues would be unjust and arbitrary and cannot be allowed. In view of the above rule, the bench rejected the challenged appeal. Instructions have been given to the employees to pay the same deducted amount.

If there is an increase of 4 per cent, the DA/DR rate will be 38 per cent. For this, the Central Employees Organization is constantly under pressure on the government. The opposition is also attacking the central government regarding inflation. Apart from this, the central government employees have now raised the issue of old pension. In these circumstances, the central government can pacify its employees and pensioners for some time by giving DA / DR and 18 months arrears during the Corona period.

This trend has changed since few years.

Dearness allowance and dearness relief, these have been increasing every year from 1st January and 1st July. However, this trend has changed in the last few years. Now instead of the above date, there is a delay of several months in the release of allowances. The increase in DA which was to be done from July this year has not happened so far.

There is a lot of pressure from the central workers on the government to release the arrears. The Secretary of the National Council of Staff Side Shiv Gopal Mishra has written a letter to the Cabinet Secretary and Chairman of the National Council ‘JCM’ in this regard on August 18 itself. According to an official of the Employees Association, a report has been given to the government to issue arrears of DA / DR with effect from January 1, 2020 to July 1, 2020 and January 1, 2021.

Government should prepare the mechanism – National Council

The Secretary and Members of the National Council of Staff Side are ready to discuss the method of release of arrears. He has asked the government that these arrears must be released. Even though some mechanism can be devised to issue it. In this regard, the employees’ organizations are ready to cooperate with the Central Government.

In his letter to the Cabinet Secretary, the JCM Secretary has referred to a decision given by the Supreme Court in February 2021. In this decision, the Supreme Court had said, due to economic crisis, the salary or pension of the employees can be temporarily stopped. It will have to be given back to the employees when the situation improves. This is the legal right of the workers. They should be paid according to the law.

The government saved 40000 crores like this

The central government had announced in early 2020 that government employees would not get DA/DR and other allowances. JCM member C. Sreekumar said, the Central Government had banned the DA / DR of government employees and pensioners under the guise of Kovid-19. At that time, the central government had saved Rs 40,000 crore by stopping the payment of 11 per cent DA of the workers. Employees organizations had suggested various options to the central government regarding the payment of 18 months arrears of central employees.

These included the one-time payment of arrears. Staff Side Secretary Shiv Gopal Mishra and other members had also told the government about the release of arrears that if it wants to discuss any other way, then the employee organizations are ready for that too. When the Central Government had announced to give DA after the Corona period, it had mentioned that from January 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021, the rate of DA and DR would be considered as 17 percent only.

Allowance given at the rate of 28%

Union Minister Anurag Thakur had said, now dearness allowance will be available at the rate of 28 percent. At that time he did not say anything about the arrears. The meaning of the announcement of the Union Minister was that the rate of increased DA should be assumed to be 28 percent from July 1, 2021. According to this, between June 2021 and July 2021, there was a sudden 11 percent increase in DA, while no increase in DA rates was recorded in the period of one and a half years.

DA / DR was frozen from January 1, 2020 to July 1, 2021. This issue of arrears was raised by the representatives of the employees’ unions in the meeting of the JCM. On behalf of the staff side, the central government was told that it would have to pay the arrears of the workers. It cannot be stopped for long.
