Goverdhan, Advocate For Respondent No. 4 in WPS No. 3078/2014 :­ Mr. Prasun Kumar Bhaduri, Advocate Hon'ble Shri Justice Sanjay K. Agrawal Order on Board 06/10/2021

1. Since common question of law and fact is involved in all these writ petitions, they have been heard together and are being decided by this common order.

2. Petitioners, who have been working as 'Assistant Teacher(Panchayat)', seek to challenge the Circular dated 22/01/2014 (Annexure P/1) claiming the benefit of revised pay­scale equivalent to Government Teachers granted to them by order dated 17/05/2013.

3. At the outset, Mr. J.A. Lohani, learned counsel for the petitioners, would submit that the validity of Circular dated 22/01/2014 was challenged in WPS No. 106/2014 (Marisha 25 Shrivastava v. State of Chhatisgarh) which was decided by this Court on 26/09/2014. The order passed in the case of Marisha Shrivastava has been partly set aside in Writ Appeal No. 32/2015 (Dinesh Kumar Dewangan v. State of Chhattisgarh) decided on 09/12/2015 and the matter was remitted to the Secretary, Panchayat and Rural Department to pass a reasoned and speaking order in accordance with law.

Thereafter, the State Government has passed the order dated 23/04/2016 which was further challenged in WPS No. 1543/2018 (Dev Kumar Kashyap v. State of Chhattisgarh) decided on 21/02/2018 wherein it has been held by this Court that the petitioner shall be entitled to obtain the benefit of revised pay­scale on completion of 8 years service by including the services rendered by them on a lower post or on the same post. As such, the petitioners herein are also entitled for the same benefit as in Dev Kumar Kashyap (supra).

4. Learned counsel for the respondents would not dispute that the validity of Circular dated 22/01/2014 was challenged in Marisha Shrivastava (supra) and the order passed 26 therein was partly set aside in Dinesh Kumar Dewangan (supra) and the matter was remitted to the Secretary, Panchayat and Rural Department and thereafter, the order dated 23/04/2016 passed by the State Government has further been set aside in Dev Kumar Kashyap (supra).

5. I have heard learned counsel for the parties at length and perused the records.

6. In the matter of Marisha Shrivastava (supra), the validity of Circular dated 22/01/2014 was questioned wherein the following directions were issued in paragraph 49 :­ "49. As a sequel, all the writ petitions, sans substratum, are liable to be and are hereby dismissed with the following conclusions :

Conclusions :­ Teacher (Panchayat) cadre initially appointed as Assistant Teacher (Panchayat), but later on joinded as Teacher (Panchayat) as a fresh recruitee are not entitled for counting their length of service on the lower post for the purpose of revision of pay scale pursuant to the order dated 17­5­2013 read with the orders dated 4­12­2013 & 22­1­2014.
Teacher (Panchayat) cadre are only entitled for pay scale similar to the Government Teachers.
Teacher (Panchayat) cadre are entitled to Dearness Allowance only, they are not entitled for any other allowances like House Rent Allowance, Medical, Stagnation, etc. 27 The revision of pay scales of Teacher (Panchayat) cadre pursuant to the order dated 17­5­2013 read with the orders dated 4­12­2013 & 22­1­2014 will be on the basis of the pay scale of the post held by them. Such revisions is not to be made on the basis of Kramonnati Vetanman or Samayman Vetanman. Recovery of excess amount paid to the Teacher (Panchayat) on account of wrong fixation of pay scale or wrong payment of allowances does not suffer from any infirmity. Challenge to the recovery of amount paid in excess is rejected. The respondent/Panchayat, Rural Development and Labour, Government of Chhattisgarh shall direct all the Zila Panchayats/Janpad Panchayats and Drawing & Disbursing Officers working therein to apply the Government instructions uniformly, as different application by giving different interpretation to the Government orders have generated confusion and discrepancy giving rise to unnecessary litigations and loss to the exchequer.
The State Government shall circulate copy of this order to all the Zila Panchayats & Janpad Panchayats for implementation.
Henceforth, if any monetary benefit will be paid to any Teacher (Panchayat) cadre, for which he is not entitled, the same shall be recoverable from the concerned Chief Executive Officer of the Zila Panchayat/Janpad Panchayat who has wrongly granted the benefit."
7. The aforesaid decision passed in Marisha Shrivastava (supra) was challenged by some of the petitioners in Dinesh Kumar Dewangan (supra) which was partly allowed on 09/12/2015 and the matter was remitted to the Secretary, Panchayat and Rural Department. In paragraphs 28 8, 9 and 10 of the order, it has been held as under :­ "8. No policy has been brought on record before us with regard to the status of the Appellants as on the date that the advertisements were published, they competed in the examination and were relieved to join their higher posts. The Respondents have not placed any materials on record with regard to the reasons for the decision to fix an eight year criteria and the justification for grant of higher pay scale, dearness allowance and increments on basis of the same which may or may not be relevant for the present controversy. If the Appellants were drawing a higher pay created by a subsequent decision of the Respondents prejudicially affecting the Appellants the Respondents are required to address the issue with regard to pay protection by removal of the anomaly. It is not an answer sustainable in law as contended by the Respondents that the Appellants will ultimately again start getting higher pay than their juniors and collegues after completion of eight years on the higher post and till then they must endure a lower pay.
9. We therefore consider it necessary to remand these matters to the Secretary, Panchayat and Rural Development Department to pass a reasoned and speaking order in accordance with law, and if the Appellants so request, grant them a representative hearing.
10. Let such appropriate fresh orders be passed within a maximum period of six months from the date of receipt and/or production of a copy of this order. The order under appeal to the extent that it concerns the present Appellants is set aside. The writ appeals are allowed with directions."

8. Thereafter, in compliance of the decision rendered by this Court in Dinesh Kumar 29 Dewangan (supra), the Secretary, Panchayat and Rural Department is said to have been passed the order dated 23/04/2016 which has been set aside by this Court in the matter of Dev Kumar Kashyap (supra) wherein it has been held as under :­ "17. For the forgoing, this Court is of the considered opinion that the impugned order dated 23.04.2016 runs contrary to the order passed by the Division Bench of this Court in Dinesh Kumar Dewangan (supra), therefore, it deserves to be and is hereby quashed. As a sequel, the writ petitions stands allowed. The petitioner shall be entitled to obtain the benefit of revised pay­scale on completion of 8 years service by including the services rendered by them on a lower post or on the same post."

9. In view of the aforesaid legal position as obtaining today, the petitioners are allowed to make representation to the Secretary, Panchayat and Rural Department within four weeks from today highlighting their grievance claiming the benefit of revised pay­scale as they claims to have completed eight years of service, which will be considered by the competent authority within a period of three months from the date of making the said representation by passing a reasoned and speaking order strictly in accordance with law. It is made clear that this 30 Court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the matter.

10. With the aforesaid direction, this batch of writ petitions stands disposed of. No cost(s).
