¶25

Mr. Ratnesh Kumar Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the case of the petitioner is exactly similar to the case of Shankar Bhagwan Prasad, which has been decided on 03.07.2018 in C.W.J.C. No. 7245 of 2017 by a Bench of this Court.

¶26

In the aforesaid case, the notification, which has been impugned in the present petition also, viz., notification contained in Memo No. 490 dated 27.03.2017, has been quashed and the writ petitioner has been held to be entitled to the benefits in the shape of arrears of salary from the date of his joining, which has been directed to be paid on a representation to be filed by the aforesaid petitioner.

¶27

Since the case of the petitioner is exactly similar to that of Shankar Bhagwan Prasad, about which reference has been made earlier and the same notification has been impugned in the present petition, which has been quashed in the earlier writ petition, the petitioner would also be governed by the same order.
