V. Perumal vs The Commissioner And Secretary To The ... on 29 March, 2006
In the decision reported in (2006) 2 MLJ 339 (V. Perumal v. Commissioner and Secretary to the Government, Health and Family Welfare Department, Chennai) I had an occasion to consider similar issue wherein the grievance of the petitioner was that there was no justification to restrict the relaxation prospectively. This Court quashed the impugned Government order therein restricting the relaxation from the date of the impugned Government order and held that if the Government order is strictly applied, the petitioner's valuable service of 20 years will get obliterated and the petitioner will not be in a position to get annual increments and other benefits. Against the said order there is no appeal as on date.
