14. The applicant is claiming parity; vide this OA, vis-à-vis other
two similarly placed employees whom she claims to have got the
benefit in terms of Hon'ble High Court's (Indore) order in Writ
Petition No. 20911 of 2019 dated 02.12.2019 (Union of India and
others vs. Narayan Chouhan) and Writ Petition No. 21206 of 2019
dated 21.01.2020 (Union of India vs. Vishwas Nimgonkar). It is
evident from the facts on record that the applicant's husband was
neither an applicant in these OAs before this Bench nor was he a

order of termination dated 13.06.2014 (Annexure A/11) and the
appellate order dated 06.05.2015 (Annexure A/13) which have
been assailed by the applicant in this OA were issued during the

Division Bench of Hon'ble MP High Court (Indore) in Writ Petition
No. 20911 of 2019 that the applicant has preferred an OA in
2020. It is evident that the applicant was watching the
proceedings before this Tribunal as well as before Hon'ble MP
High Court and it only after the aforesaid judgments that she
approached this Tribunal requesting for similar benefits for her
late husband.
