that the order passed on 24.08.2009 passed by the respondents in so far as it denied the arrears was untenable in law. In terms of the said judgment, the impugned proceedings are quashed and the writ petition is allowed subject to the observations found in the Division Bench ruling that if the financial condition of the Bank, as on date, is proved and established by credible material to be fragile or precarious, it will be open for the bank to negotiate with its employees for payment of the arrears in part or in installments as the case may be. The payment of arrears in entirety or in part or in installments would not however carry any interest.

¶32

With these observations, the writ petitions are disposed of.
