Dr.G.Thamaraiselvi vs The Secretary To Government

“...24. The Legislature is competent to unilaterally alter the service conditions of the employee and that can be done with retrospective effect also, but the intention of the Legislature to apply the amended provisions with retrospective effect must be evident from the Amendment Act itself expressly or by necessary implication. The aforesaid power of the Legislature is qualified further that such a unilateral alteration of service conditions should be in conformity with legal and constitutional provisions. (Vide: Roshan Lal Tandon v. Union of India & Ors., AIR 1967 SC 1889; State of Mysore v. Krishna Murthy & Ors., AIR 1973 SC 1146; Raj Kumar v. Union of India & Ors., AIR 1975 SC 1116; Ex-Capt.

Kesar Singh Rawat vs State Of Uttarakhand & Others on 6 January, 2021

16. It is well settled that the power to frame rules to regulate the conditions of service under the proviso to Article 309 of the Constitution carries with it the power to amend or alter the rules with a retrospective effect: B.S. Vadhera v. Union of India, AIR 1969 SC 118; Raj Kumar v. Union of India (1975) 4 SCC 13; K. Nagaraj v. State of A.P. (1985) 1 SCC 523 and State of J & K v. Triloki Nath Khosa (1974) 1 SCC 19. It is equally well settled that any rule which affects the right of a person to be considered for promotion is a condition of service although mere chances of promotion may not be. It may further be stated that an authority competent to lay down qualifications for promotion, is also competent to change the qualifications. The rules defining qualification and suitability for promotion are conditions of service and they can be changed retrospectively. This rule is however subject to a well recognized principle that the benefits acquired under the existing rules cannot be taken away by an amendment with retrospective effect, that is to say, there is no power to make such a rule under the proviso to Article 309 which affects or impairs vested rights. Therefore, unless it is specifically provided in the rules, the employees who are already promoted before the amendment of the rules, cannot be reverted and their promotions cannot be recalled.

Members Of The Retired Allopathic ... vs M/O Health And Family Welfare on 24 September, 2019

"11. Rules under Article 309 can be changed even during the subsistence of the old rules. As held in Raj Kumar v. Union of India [(1975) 4 SCC 13 : 1975 SCC (L&S) 198 : AIR 1975 SC 1116] (vide SCC para 2), "rules made under the proviso to Article 309 of the Constitution are legislative in character, and therefore can be given effect to retrospectively". Thus, the rules under the proviso to Article 309 are constitutional rules, not like rules under a statute. Hence they have the same force as a statute, though made by the executive.

Their Lordships have in Raj Kumar v. Union of India, (AIR 1975 SC 1116) held that the servant is only entitled to claim notice or a month's emoluments, but he cannot maintain a writ petition to challenge the validity of the order on the basis of the Supreme Court decision in Senior Superintendent R. M. S. Cochin v. K. V. Gopinath (supra), inasmuch as the rule was amended. In our opinion, having regard to the language of the Standing Order No. 11, the only right of the employee is to claim one month's wages.

Ashis Kumar Banik vs Tripura Co-Operative Land Development ... on 7 December, 2000

In the said case of Union of India v. Arun Kumar Roy, (supra), the Supreme Court construing a similar provision in rule 5(1)(b) of the Central Civil Services (Temporary Service) Rules, 1965, held following its earlier decision in the case of Raj Kumar v. Union of India, (1975) 4 SCC 13, that it was not obligatory on the employer to pay the employee a sum equivalent to the amount of his pay and allowances for the period of the notice at the rate at which he was drawing them immediately before the termination of the services or as the case may be for the period by which such notice fell short, and that the employee concerned was only entitled to claim the said sum. In other words, the termination of service of the employee and the payment of one month's emoluments need not be simultaneous, but only by way of compensation. The impugned order of termination dated 13.12.1993 itself states that the petitioner was entitled to one month's salary in lieu of one month's notice. The petitioner is therefore entitled to the said amount of one month's salary as compensation, and the impugned order dated 13.12.1993 cannot be held to be contrary to rule 23 of the Rules.
