ORAL ORDER
(Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI)
8 15-01-2018Heard counsel for the State, the appellants, as well as the private respondents.
Since the learned single Judge allowed the writ application, gave a direction for payment of salary for the period 01.10.2001 to 03.07.2007 in conformity with a similar decision passed in the case of Smt. Ram Laxmi Mishra, which order in turn even upheld by the Division Bench as well as by the Hon'ble Apex Court. In the interest of maintaining consistency in identical situation, the learned single Judge has committed no error in allowing the writ application and granted direction for payment for the period indicated above.
We do not find any infirmity in the order. The appeal is dismissed.
