Entire Salary Differential Of Higher Post Can’t Be Granted Merely Because Additional Duties Were Undertaken By Workman Of Lower Post

Case: Sharda Chimanbhai Lalbhai VS Dinesh Mohanbhai Prajapati

Coram: Justice Kogje

Case No.: C/SCA/3813/2018

Court Observation: “The requirement of the Recruitment Rules specifies that a Ward-boy only to be literate and there is no specification with regard to selection process whereas… post of Telephone Operator being Class-III, the post had prescribed qualification of SSC pass and experience of Telephone Exchange and such person would be eligible for selection process. This being the most important aspect, the Industrial Tribunal ought not to have granted the pay scale of Class-III post to the respondent, who was admittedly appointed on the post of a Ward-boy.”
