Union Of India & Anr vs P.K. Roy & Ors on 9 November, 1967

Before concluding, we are constrained to observe that the role played by the respondents in this litigation is far from satisfactory. In bur opinion, after laying down appropriate rules governing the service conditions of its employees, a State should only play the role of an impartial employer in the inter-se dispute between its employees. If any such dispute arises, the State should apply the rules laid down by it fairly. Still if the matter is dragged to a judicial forum, the State should confine its role to that of an amicus curiae by assisting the judicial forum to a correct decision. Once a decision is rendered by a judicial forum, thereafter the State should not further involve itself in litigation. The matter thereafter should be left to the parties concerned to agitate further, if they so desire. When a State, after the judicial forum delivers a judgment, files review petition, appeal etc. it gives an impression that it is espousing the cause of a particular group of employees against another group of its own employees, unless of course there are compelling reasons to resort to such further proceedings. In the instant case, we feel the respondent has taken more than necessary interest which is uncalled for. This act of the State has only resulted in waste of time and money of all concerned.

We are inclined to agree with him that the real criterion to adopt is whether they could be regarded of equal status and responsibility xxx The true criterion for equivalence is the status and the nature and responsibility of the duties attached to the two posts, xxx"
