RSA No.3 of 2007 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. RSA No.3 of 2007 Date of Decision : 28.11.2008 Dalip Singh ....Appellant Vs. State of Haryana and others ...Respondents ... CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RAJIVE BHALLA ... Present : Mr.Arvind Kashyap, Advocate for Mr.Sanjeev Dua, Advocate for the appellant. Mr.Ajay Chaudhary, DAG, Haryana. .... RAJIVE BHALLA, J (Oral) The appellant challenges judgements and decrees dated 21.5.2002 and 2.11.2006, passed by the Civil Judge (Junior Division), Chandigarh and the District Judge, Chandigarh, dismissing his suit and his appeal, respectively. The appellant filed a suit for a declaration praying for the issuance of a direction to the respondents to fix his pay at Rs.660/- p.m. with effect from 1.1.1981 instead of 1.7.1985 as his junior, Inspector Dewan Chand has been granted salary @ Rs.660/- p.m. Upon notice, the State of Haryana, opposed the suit on the grounds of limitation and that his pay has been rightly fixed after his reinstatement by the Labour Court. After consideration of the entire dispute, as the appellant admitted that RSA No.3 of 2007 2 Inspector Dewan Chand is his senior, the suit was dismissed. Aggrieved by the aforementioned judgement, the appellant filed an appeal. During the pendency of the appeal, the State of Haryana, re-fixed the appellant's salary and paid arrears of Rs.4732/- to the appellant, but his claim for further arrears was rejected and the appeal was dismissed. Counsel for the appellant submits that the appellant is entitled to arrears of Rs.18,700/- with interest @ 18% p.a. but has failed to put forth any valid argument in support of the aforementioned claim. There is no averment in the plaint or material adduced in evidence in support of the claim of arrears. The concurrent findings of fact recorded by the Courts below do not suffer from any error, whether of jurisdiction or of law and as no substantial question of law arises for consideration, the appeal is dismissed. 28.11.2008 ( RAJIVE BHALLA ) GS JUDGE
