of the provision as contained in Rule 7.3 would make it clear that a
Government employee who has been dismissed, removed, compulsorily
retired or suspended, is reinstated upon having been fully exonerated, then
he shall be given full pay and allowances to which he would have been
entitled to had he not been dismissed, removed, compulsorily retired or
suspended as the case may be. In other words, the above quoted rule clearly
specifies that a dismissed employee when reinstated upon exoneration is
entitled to be granted full pay and allowances to which he would have been
otherwise entitled to had he not been dismissed from service. Whereas, Rule
7.5 specifically prescribes that in the event of a Government employee
acquitted of the blame and it is proved that the official's liability arose from
circumstances beyond control or the detention being held by the competent
authority to be unjustified, he would be entitled to full salary... "That now, it
becomes abundantly clear that Rule 7.3 of the Rules is the general rule,
while in case a person is acquitted, it is specific Rule 7.5 of the Rules that
would be attracted. The law is well settled that specific Rule will always
take precedence over the general rule and consequently, it must follow that
under Rule 7.5 of the Rules, referred to above, the petitioner was entitled to
the full back wages. In other words, in terms of Rule 7.5 of the Rules, on
petitioner's being acquitted, he would be entitled to full salary and
allowances for the period of suspension and dismissal... "That in other
words, Rule 7.3 (i) empowers the competent authority to decide in respect to
the period of a Government employee who remained dismissed or removed
or compulsorily retired or under suspension. Sub Rule (ii) of Rule 7.3,
however, specifically prescribes that in the event of a Government employee

who had been dismissed, removed or compulsorily retired and has been
fully exonerated, upon reinstatement, he shall be paid full pay and
allowances to which he would have been entitled to, had he not been
dismissed, removed or compulsorily retired or suspended. Sub Rule (iii) or
Rule 7.3 further provides for treating the entire period of suspension
preceding dismissal, removal or compulsory retirement as a period spent on
duty for all purpose."
