Prakash Dansena v. The State Of Chhattisgarh
Case brief
What is this about?
Appointees challenged a common order dismissing their writ petitions and permitting the State to unilaterally re-fix the pay-scale, though the advertisement and appointment letters had specified it. The Division Bench held that the writ Court erred in denying an opportunity of hearing, quashed the impugned order and remanded the matter for a fresh decision after hearing the appointees.
What did the court decide?
Impugned order dated 18.8.2015 quashed and set aside; matter remanded to the respondent State authorities with a direction to give the appointees an opportunity of hearing before taking any decision.
