Kerala HCWA/486/2019
Case brief
AI extract
What is this about?
State appeals against a Single Judge direction to fix aided college lecturers' pay in the UGC scale from the date of appointment as approved by the University. The Division Bench held that such claims, raised about two decades later, were hopelessly belated and not a continuing wrong, and allowed the appeals on the ground of delay.
What did the court decide?
Appeals allowed on the ground that the claim is highly belated; the judgment of the learned Single Judge directing fixation of UGC scale of pay from the date of appointment was set aside.
