In this regard, according to them, the Government issued G.O.Ms.No.210, School Education (G1) Department, dated 14.08.2009, wherein the Government had directed that the period of service rendered by the Teachers as Secondary Grade Teachers and Elementary School Headmaster, prior to becoming the Graduate Headmaster of Middle School, should also be taken into account for awarding selection and Special Grade of pay. However, the benefit of G.O.Ms.No.210 was given only to 65 persons. Thereafter, a number of Writ Petitions were filed by similarly placed persons and a Learned Single Judge of this Court

¶304

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶305

had dismissed those Writ Petitions. However, on appeal, a Division Bench of this Court in a batch of Writ Appeals in W.A.(MD)Nos.815 of 2010, etc. batch, by order dated 07.07.2011, had issued a direction to the Respondents therein to extend the benefits of G.O.Ms.No.210, School Education (G1) Department, dated 14.08.2009, to the appellants therein. Therefore, according to the Learned Counsel for the Petitioners, the Petitioners are also entitled for the same relief.

¶306

The Learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the Respondents would submit that the order of the Division Bench has been complied with in respect of those persons and as far as these Petitioners are concerned, their requests would be considered by the Respondents.

¶307

I have considered the above submissions.

¶308

Since the issues involved in these Writ Petitions have already been settled by the Division Bench and since the benefits have also been extended by the Government to similarly placed persons, I am inclined to issue a direction granting the same to the Petitioners also.

¶309

In the result, these Writ Petitions are allowed with a direction to the Respondents to extend the benefits of G.O.Ms.No.210, School Education (G1) Department, dated 14.08.2009, to the Petitioners also.

¶310

It is further directed that the consequential order shall be issued by the Government within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs.

¶311

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶312

Following the order of this Court dated 28.10.2013, made in W.P (MD)Nos.15020 to 15029 of 2012, this Writ Petition is also allowed with a direction to the Respondents to extend the benefits of G.O.Ms.No.190, School Education (G1) Department, dated 14.08.2009, to the Petitioner also. Such benefit shall be extended to the Petitioner within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order."

¶313

and ultimately, disposed of the Writ Petition by issuing necessary directions.

¶314

At the time of hearing of the present Writ Appeal, the Learned Counsel for the Respondent/Writ Petitioner brings it to the notice of this Court that in W.A.(MD)Nos.361 to 363 and 374 to 382 of 2015, a Division Bench of this Court, on 11.08.2017, following the Full Bench decision of this Court, between THE GOVERNMENT OF TAMIL NADU REP. BY ITS SECRETARY, SCHOOL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT, CHENNAI-9 AND OTHERS v. G.ESWARAN AND OTHERS reported in 2017 (2) MLJ 257, had dismissed the Writ Appeals and the said decision squarely applies to the facts of the present case on hand.

¶315

In the instant case, the Respondent/Writ Petitioner was appointed as a Junior Grade Teacher in Emakkalapuram Union Elementary School on 10.10.1980, he was working as Secondary Grade Teacher between 10.10.1990 and 10.10.2000. Subsequently, he was appointed as Tamil Pandit on 01.07.1997 at Panchayat Union Middle School, Sanarpatti, Dindigul District. He was also promoted to the post of Middle School Headmaster, Koova.Kurumbapatti on 01.07.2001. Later, he was reverted to the post of Secondary Grade Teacher on 05.08.2003 as the School was upgraded as High School and Middle School Headmaster post was disbanded and subsequently, he was again promoted to the post of Middle School Headmaster on 16.07.2004 and on attaining the age of superannuation, he was retired from service on 31.10.2005 as

¶316

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶317

Headmaster, Middle School, Veerachinnampatti Union, Dindigul District.

¶318

The categorical stand of the appellants/Respondents is that the Respondent passed a Government Order in G.O.Ms.No.210, School Education (G1) Department, dated 14.08.2009 to the effect that the length of service in the post of Secondary Grade Teacher and Elementary School Headmaster prior to 01.06.1988 shall be reckoned to provide Special Grade in the post of Middle School Graduate Headmaster in respect of 65 Middle School Graduate Headmasters, who obtained orders from the Tamil Nadu Administrative Tribunal and their scale of pay was fixed in the post of Middle School Graduate Headmaster as Rs.2200-75-2800-100-4000 in terms of recommendation of the Fifth Pay Commission.

¶319

Apart from that, the similarly placed Middle School Graduate Headmaster, after passing of the Government Order in G.O.Ms.No.210, dated 14.08.2009 filed number of Writ Petitions before this Court and obtained orders for extension of the benefits of the aforesaid Government Order in G.O.Ms.No.210, dated 14.08.2009. The primordial plea of the Respondent/Petitioner is that G.O.Ms.No.190, School Education (G1) Department, dated 12.07.2010 passed by the First Appellant/First Respondent restricting the operation of G.O.Ms.No.210, dated 14.08.2009 to those persons, who had secured orders of the Court on or before 12.07.2010, is untenable in Law. Further, the Respondent/Petitioner pleads that he is also a similarly placed Teacher like that of other teachers and therefore, entitled to the benefits of the Government Order in G.O.Ms.No.210, dated 14.08.2009 and G.O.Ms.No.190, dated 12.07.2010 and therefore, his length of service before 01.06.1988 in the post of Secondary Grade Teacher ought to be reckoned for the purpose of grant of Special Grade in the post of Middle School Graduate Headmaster and that he is entitled to be granted salary in the scale of pay of Rs.220075-2800-100-4000 and that the benefits of the G.O.Ms.No.210, dated 14.08.2009 also should be

¶320

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶321

extended to and in his favour.

¶322

It is not in dispute that subsequently in W.A.Nos.815 of 2010 etc., the judgment was passed on 07.07.2011 on the ground that the cause of action is a continuous one etc., and ultimately it was held that the Government should have extended the benefits of G.O.Ms.Nos.210 and 234 to all the similarly situated employees.

¶323

Following the decision of the Full Bench of this Court between THE GOVERNMENT OF TAMIL NADU REP. BY ITS SECRETARY, SCHOOL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT, CHENNAI-9 AND OTHERS v. G.ESWARAN AND OTHERS (Rev. Application No.227 of 2015 etc., W.A.Nos.1744 of 2015, etc., W.P.Nos.29774 of 2016, etc., and Contempt Petition Nos.1545 of 2016, etc., batch, dated 09.12.2016), reported in 2017 (2) MLJ 257, also keeping in mind the common Judgment of the Division Bench of this Court in W.A.(MD) Nos.361 to 363 and 374 to 382 of 2015, dated 11.08.2017, this Court, considering the issue (s) centering around the present Writ Appeal, which is squarely covered by the Full Bench decision of this Court, dismisses the present Writ Appeal to prevent an aberration of Justice and in furtherance of substantial cause of Justice. However, there shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petition is also dismissed."

¶324

13. Against the said judgement of the Hon'ble Division Bench in W.A.(MD) No.1420 of 2017, dated 20.11.2017, State has preferred a Review Application (MD) No.37 of 2018, before the Madurai Bench of this Court.

¶325

14. Adverting to the grounds of review and submissions made by the learned Special Government Pleader (Education), a Hon'ble Division Bench of this Court (Madurai Bench) passed a very detailed order on 21.03.2018, in the said Review Application (MD) No.37 of 2018. Paragraphs 6 to 33 of the said order are extracted hereunder:

¶326

" 6. Assailing the correctness, legality and validity of the impugned Judgment dated 20.11.2017 in W.A.(MD).No.1420 of 2017 passed by this Court, the Petitioners have filed the present Review Application based on the reason that the Hon'ble Division Bench should have

¶327

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶328

seen that the Respondent/Writ Petitioner is not entitled to get the benefits of G.O.Ms.No.234, dated 10.09.2009.

¶329

Advancing his arguments, the Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners/Appellants submits that only persons promoted as Primary School Headmasters prior to 01.06.1988 and persons who worked under Panchayat Union Schools are entitled to the benefits and no one else, i.e. to count their service as Secondary Grade Teachers for awarding Selection Grade and Special Grade in Headmaster Post.

¶330

Added further, it is the submission of the Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners/Appellants that the original intention of the Government for bringing the scheme in question was for the benefit of the Teachers serving in Panchayat Union School and further, Elementary Education, one Panchayat is one Unit and therefore, prior to 01.06.1988, since salary was same, although the concerned persons are seniors in service, persons opted to go to their native Panchayat as Secondary Grade Teacher, giving up their right to be Primary School Headmasters. After 01.06.1988, payment was refixed and they got affected. Apart from that, 63 persons, who originally obtained the orders of the Court and which paved way for all the controversies belong to the Panchayat Union School and now the benefits were restricted to eligible Teachers in Panchayat Union Schools and not to other Schools.

¶331

The Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners brings it to the notice of this Court that the batch of cases in W.P. (MD).No.1026 of 2010 and W.P.(MD).Nos.12255 of 2009 etc. were dismissed on 21.01.2010 and 17.09.2010 respectively on the ground of delay and latches. However, a batch of Appeals in W.A.(MD)No.815 of 2010 etc. were allowed on 07.07.2011 to extent the benefits as they are similarly placed persons. In the meanwhile, W.A.Nos.512 to 516 of 2011 came to be dismissed by another Division Bench. The Division Bench, which disposed of the

¶332

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶333

W.A.Nos.815 of 2010 etc. batch, according to the Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners, was not inclined to take a different view and by Judgment dated 29.09.2011 in W.P.No.21804 of 2011, this Court held that persons who came after 07.07.2011 are not entitled to any arrears in extending such benefits to them.

¶334

The Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners proceeds to point out that the VI Pay Commission was given effect from 01.01.1996 as per G.O.Ms.No.162 and that Pay for Secondary Grade Teacher and Primary School Headmaster was refixed and the basic pay for Secondary Grade Teacher was fixed as Rs.4,500/- and Primary School Headmaster Rs.5,300/-.

¶335

11.The Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners forcibly contends that on conferring such Selection Grade/Special Grade, the employees are entitled to higher scale that he would get in the promoted post, but will remain to work in the same post. Besides that, it is a basic rule that if a person works for more than 10 years in the same post, he is entitled to Selection Grade and further 10 years in the said post, he is entitled to Special Grade.

¶336

The Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioner contends that prior to 01.06.1988 the date on which the V Pay Commission was given effect to the post of Secondary Grade Teachers and the post of Primary School Headmasters were having the same scale of pay and basic for both of them was Rs.610/- and in short, the posts are inter se transferable. Furthermore, normally senior most Secondary Grade Teacher will be the Headmaster and that the Headmaster would be getting Special pay of Rs.15/- per month.

¶337

The Learned Special Government Pleader for the Appellants puts forward a plea that there is an error on the face of record when this Court had disposed of W.A.(MD) No.1420 of 2010 while applying the Judgment

¶338

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶339

reported in (2017) 2 MLJ 257 (DB) [Government of Tamil Nadu V. G.Eswaran and others].

¶340

The core contention advanced on behalf of the Petitioners/Appellants is that this Court at the time of disposal of W.A.No.1420 of 2017 should have seen that the Full Bench Judgment, which was referred in W.A.(MD)No.1420 of 2017 is not in favour of Employees and hence, they are not entitled to arrears of the amount and as such, the Court should have disposed of the Writ Appeal in terms of the directions issued thereunder and ought not to have dismissed the Writ Appeal.

¶341

It is the stand of the Appellants that the Selection Grade Secondary Grade Teachers would draw a time scale of pay 5300150-8300 (VI Pay Commission) which is admissible to a Primary School Headmaster, in the ordinary scale and that the Primary School Headmaster post will be the first level promotion post for a Secondary Grade Teacher and the following Tabular Column is extracted hereunder:

¶342

	V Pay	Commission
Secondary	Ordinary	Selection	Special
Grade	Grade	Grade	Grade
01-06-1998	1200	1400	1640
01-01-1996	4500	5300	5900
	VI Pay	Commission
Secondary	Ordinary	Selection	Special
Grade	Grade	Grade	Grade
01-06-1998	1400	1640	2000
01-01-1996	5300	6500	8000

¶343

The above mentioned column, according to the Petitioners/ Appellants will point out that this type of equalisation if Selection Grade pay and Ordinary Grade first level promotion pay cease to exist after 01.01.2006 i.e. when the revised scale of pay Rules – 2009 was introduced in 2009 by issuing G.O.Ms.No.234, dated 01.06.2009 which came into effect from 01.01.2006.

¶344

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶345

The Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners vehemently puts forward an argument that if an individual after 10 years and after securing the Selection Grade work for a particular period in the same post for five more years, after getting promoted, for awarding Selection Grade/Special Grade, the service rendered by him in the feeder category with Selection Grade/Special Grade will be taken into account for granting Selection Grade/Special Grade in the promoted post as per G.O.Ms.No.210 dated 11.03.1987; G.O.Ms.No.212, dated 07.08.2000 and G.O.Ms.No.38, dated 05.03.2001.

¶346

The Learned Special Government Pleader for the Petitioners draws the attention of this Court that persons were promoted as Primary School Headmasters after 01.06.1988 approached the Tamil Nadu Administrative Tribunal by filing O.A.No.2997 of 1991 and O.A.No.3010 of 1991 dated 24.09.1993 and the Tribunal came down heavily on the Department for passing such Government Order and paras 3 and 4 of the said Government Order was quashed. Accordingly, G.O.Ms.No.300 dated 07.04.1994 was passed and that G.O.Ms.No.1381 dated 05.01.1990 was recalled. Added further, the persons to whom benefits were given in the meanwhile approached the Court either challenging the recovery or to prevent the recovery. This Court also had not ordered for recovery of the benefits already given to the concerned persons. Based on such directions, G.O.Ms.No.185 dated 16.12.2002 and G.O.Ms.No.160 dated 23.08.2005 came to be passed. However, 63 persons approached the Tribunal and obtained orders as if they are similarly placed persons to whom benefits of G.O.Ms.No.1381 dated 05.10.1990 was given and secured orders to extend the benefits to them (vide order dated 12.07.2002 in O.A.No.68 of 1997 and O.A.No.177 of 1997). While summing up, it is the plea of the Appellants that the Judgment passed by this Court in W.A.(MD) No.1420 of 2017 on 20.11.2017 is an illegal, arbitrary and liable to be reviewed.

¶347

It is to be borne in mind that for

¶348

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶349

filing of a 'Review' in respect of an decision or order passed by the Court, there must be reasons like creeping in of an error apparent on the face of record. Further, a Review Petition cannot be filed as an 'Appeal in Disguise'. The position of Law is that if an Order/Judgment passed by a Competent Court is not palatable to the concerned Litigant/Party, then, in Law, it is open to him to approach the Competent Higher Forum for redressal of his grievances. Moreover, just because another view is possible in that event also, a 'Review Petition' will not lie in the eye of Law, as opined by this Court.

¶350

It is to be noted that 'Review' literally and even judicially means reexamination or re-consideration. It cannot be gainsaid that 'Review' and 'Appeal' cannot go altogether. In reality, 'Review' lies only on the ground of an error apparent on the face of record or for any other sufficient reason. Under the guise of 'Review', the High Court would not rehear the parties on point of Law afresh as per decision Co-operative Agricultural Rural Development Bank Limited V. Smt.Basanti Swain and others, 96 (2003) CLT 159 Orissa (DB).

¶351

At this juncture, this Court aptly points out the decision Rajeswari and another V. Sri Bhuvaneswari Cycle Mart rep. By its Managing Partner D.Ramasamy reported in 2007 6 MLJ 47 at page 48 wherein it is held that 'An erroneous decision can be corrected only by the Higher Forum and it cannot be corrected by exercising the review jurisdiction'.

¶352

21.It is the settled proposition of Law that a 'Review of the Judgment' cannot be granted in the garb of clarification as per decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Saurabh Chaudri (Dr.) and others V. Union of India and others, (2004) 5 Supreme Court Cases 618.

¶353

The 'Power of Review' is not to be confused with an Appellate power which may enable an Appellate Court to correct an erroneous decision by process of 'Reheard and

¶354

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶355

Corrected'. In short, a Review Petition has a limited role to play and by any means, it cannot be permitted to act as an Appeal in disguise. Even though if two views are possible on the point involved, then, that is not a ground for 'Review' as per decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Harinagar Sugar Mills Limited and another V. State of Bihar and others, (2006) 1 Supreme Court Cases 509.

¶356

One cannot brush aside a prime fact that an error apparent on the face of record must be such an error which strike one on mere looking at the record and would not require any long-drawn process of reasoning on points on which there may conceivably be two opinions as per decision Abdul Rasheed V. Union of India and others, (2007) 3 Calcutta Head Notes 888, 891 (Cal) (DB). A Review which seeks Rehearing of the matter is not maintainable as per decision J. & K. Bank V. Mohd. Sultan Dar, AIR 2006 JAMMU & KASHMIR 35.

¶357

In this connection, it is not out of place for this Court to make a pertinent mention that even an erroneous order or incorrect decision cannot be corrected in 'Review'. Also that, 'Rehearing' of the matter on merits and reappreciation of the arguments/pleas raised by the parties in the original order is not permissible in Review, as per decision MCD V. Anil Prakash, AIR 2007 (NOC) 1653 (Del.) (DB). If the Petitioner is aggrieved by the findings rendered by a Competent Court, then, the remedy in Law is not filing of a Review Petition, as opined by this Court.

¶358

No wonder, where the order in question is Appealable, the aggrieved party has an adequate and efficacious remedy and the Court should exercise the power of 'Review' its order with greatest circumspection as per decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Haridas Das V. Usha Rani Bank (Smt) and others, (2006) 4 SCC 78. 'Reappraisal of Evidence' is impermissible in Review.

¶359

The term 'Mistake or Error apparent' by its very connotation points out an error which is evident per se from the record of the case and does not require a detailed manner of

¶360

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶361

scrutiny and elucidation either of the facts or the legal position. If an error is not self-evident and detection thereof requires long debate and process of reasoning, it cannot be treated as an error apparent on the face of record for the purpose of Order 47 Rule 1 C.P.C. as per decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in State of West Bengal and others V. Kamal Sengupta and another, (2008) 8 SCC 612, 633.

¶362

It is to be noted that 'Erroneous Decision' can be corrected by an Appellate/Higher Authority. However, 'An error apparent on the face of record' can be corrected by a Court of Law under 'Review Jurisdiction'.

¶363

It cannot be gainsaid that 'An error apparent on the face of record' is not to be defined either in an elaborate manner or in a precise fashion, in the considered opinion of this Court. The resultant position is that it is for the concerned Competent Court to decide this question judicially resting on the facts and circumstances of a given case.

¶364

In fact, the ingredients of Section 114 of the Civil Procedure Code and Order 47 Rule 1 C.P.C. specify the ingredients to be complied with prior to the exercise of the power of 'Review', of course, subject to the extent and limitations.

¶365

As far as the present case is concerned, this Court is of the considered view that while passing the Judgment in W.A. (MD)No.1420 of 2017, this Court had taken note of the Judgment delivered in W.A.No.815 of 2010 etc. 07.07.2011 and also at para 9 of its Judgment, referred to the Full Bench decision of this Court reported in (2017) 2 MLJ 257 [Government of Tamil Nadu V.G.Eswaran and others]. Also, this Court borne in mind the common Judgment of the Division Bench of this Court in W.A.(MD)Nos.361 to 363 and 374 to 382 of 2015 dated 11.08.2017 and dismissed the Writ Appeal.

¶366

In view of the foregoings, this Court is of the considered view that the Petitioners are not able to satisfy the subjective judicial conscience of this Court as to the

¶367

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶368

creeping in of a purported apparent error in the Judgment delivered by this Court in W.A. (MD).No.1420 of 2017. Undoubtedly, the scope of 'Review' in Law either under Section 114 of the Civil Procedure Code or under Order 47 Rule 1 C.P.C. is very limited/restricted as the case may be.

¶369

Considering the fact that even though an endeavour has been made on behalf of the Appellants that in any event the Hon'ble Division Bench in W.A.(MD)No.1420 of 2017, following the Full Bench Judgment reported in (2017) 2 MLJ 257 (FB) (cited supra), should have disposed of the Writ Appeal in terms of the directions issued thereunder and not to have dismissed the Appeal, this Court comes to an irresistible conclusion that the Review Petition filed by the Appellants is per se not maintainable in the eye of Law. Furthermore, at the risk of repetition, it is pertinently pointed out that when this Court in the Judgment in W.A.(MD)No.1420 of 2017 dated 20.11.2017, at para 8, had referred to the Judgment in W.A.No.815 of 2010 etc. batch dated 07.07.2011 and later mentioned in the said Judgment, a decision of the Full Bench as aforestated, this Court is not inclined to take a different view than the one already arrived at in this regard. Viewed in that perspective, the 'Review Petition' in any event, in Law, is not maintainable 'Ex facie'.

¶370

In fine, the Review Petition is dismissed. No costs. It is open to the Review Petitioners/Appellants to approach the Competent Higher Forum for redressal of their grievances in accordance with Law, if they so desire/advised. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petition is also dismissed."

¶371

15. Mr.C.Munusamy, learned Special Government Pleader, made submissions, reiterating the grounds. We have gone through the materials on record and the grounds in the instant appeal. Same points have been raised. The above decisions are squarely applicable to the facts and circumstances of the instant case. Therefore, following the above decision of the Hon'ble Division Bench (cited supra), as well as the decision of the Hon'ble Full Bench (cited supra) instant writ

¶372

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶373

appeal is dismissed. The appellants are directed to grant the benefits of G.O.Ms.No.210, School Education (G1) Department, dated 14.08.2009 to respondent's father and fix his pay in Selection Grade / Special Grade, in the post of Middle School Headmaster, by counting the service rendered as Secondary Grade Teacher/Primary School Headmaster/Elementary School Headmaster, from the date of his promotion to the post of Middle School Headmaster, if he was not given the same already, with all monetary benefits and the pensionary benefits with arrears till the date of his death. Considering the long period of litigation, litigation expenses etc., we deem it fit to direct the appellants to fix the pay in the Selection Grade / Special Grade as ordered above within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgement and consequently, the appellants are further directed to revise the pension / family pension, and disburse both the arrears of salary and differential pension, within a period of eight weeks thereafter. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petition is closed. No costs."

¶374

8. Though Mr.C.Munusamy, learned Special Government Pleader (Education) states that long after their reinstatement, respondents have approached this Court and that a huge amount has to be paid, that cannot be a ground to deprive the respondents of their entitlement to selection grade / special grade to pay which the appellants ought to have paid. Courts have held that in the matter of fixation of pay and pension, there is a continuing cause and for the above said reason, we are not inclined to accept the said contention. Following the above decision, all the writ appeals are dismissed. The appellants are directed to grant the benefits of G.O.Ms.No.210, School Education (G1) Department, dated 14.08.2009, to all the respondents and fix their pay in Selection Grade / Special Grade in the post of Middle School Headmaster, by counting the service rendered as Secondary Grade Teacher/Primary School Headmaster/Elementary School Headmaster, from the date of their promotion to the post of Middle School Headmaster, if they were not given the same already, with all monetary benefits and the pensionary benefits with arrears till the date of his death. Though, Mr.C.Munusamy, learned Special Government Pleader (Education) sought four months time to complete the exercise of revising the pay in the Selection Grade / Special Grade to the respondents, and consequently revise the pension / family pension, considering the long period of litigation, which the retired employees / members of the family of the retired employees have to undergo, litigation expenses etc., we, deem it fit, to direct the appellants, to fix the pay in the Selection

¶375

https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

¶376

Grade / Special Grade, within a period of four weeks, from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgement and consequently, the appellants are further directed to revise the pension / family pension, and disburse both arrears of salary and differential pension, within a period of eight weeks, thereafter. Consequently, connected civil miscellaneous petitions are closed. No costs.
