HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KSHETARPAL HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AMIT MAHAJAN O R D E R % 21.05.2026

¶477

This is batch of 110 cases wherein identical prayers have been made. The Petitioners in all the writ petitions are serving in Central Industrial Security Force. They are posted in different cities. They pray for issuance of a Writ in the nature of Mandamus thereby directing the Respondents to grant additional 5% HRA from the respective dates as given in the chart which shall form part of this order as mark ‘C-1’.

¶478

In fact, the Petitioners claim that the matter in issue is squarely covered in their favour by a judgment passed by the Division Bench of this Court in the case of Jaspal Singh Mann v. Union of India & Ors. : 2009 ILR 1 Delhi 165.

¶479

Thereafter, there has been a series of judgments passed by this Court to the same effect.

4967/2023 , has upheld the judgment passed by this Court in the case of Jaspal Singh Mann v. Union of India & Ors. ( supra ).

¶485

Learned counsel representing the Respondents submits that in view of Rule 61 of Central Industrial Security Force Rules, 2001 read with Office Memorandum dated 31.07.2017, the Petitioners are not entitled to additional 5% HRA.

¶486

It is evident that this objection was considered by Division Bench of this Court in the case of Jaspal Singh Mann v. Union of India & Ors. ( supra ) and other judgments. Hence, it is not open to the Respondents to take this objection once again.

¶487

In view of the aforesaid, the present writ petitions are allowed in terms of judgment passed by Division Bench of this Court in the case of Jaspal Singh Mann v. Union of India & Ors. ( supra ).

¶488

The Respondents are directed to release the amount payable to the Petitioners within a period of next 03 months.
