No varying pay-scale if employees are in same posts: HC

New Delhi, Oct 12 (PTI) There cannot be discrimination among employees holding the same posts and doing similar nature of work in terms of their pay scale unless one has higher qualifications, the Delhi High Court has said.


The court dismissed an appeal filed by the Centre against the order of the Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) which had held that there cannot be discrimination among persons holding same posts vis-a-vis their pay scale while allowing a batch of petitions filed a group of Prasar Bharati employees.

"... where there is complete parity it would be highly discriminatory to treat employees differently merely on account of the two coming from two different sources," a Division Bench of Justices Pradeep Nandrajog and Moolchand Garg said.

However, the court clarified that the pay scale can vary if an employee held higher qualification than others in the same cadre.

If appeal number is given, it would be useful to the Govt. Servants for quoting the same.
