IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.8635 of 2008 Date of Decision: 21.5.2008 Pushotam Dass Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE JASBIR SINGH HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K.C.PURI Present: Shri R.N.Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner Jasbir Singh, J. (Oral) Notice of motion. On our asking, Shri Harish Rathee, Sr. D.A.G. Haryana accepts notice. By filing this writ petition the petitioner has laid challenge to the order dated 30.3.2007(P/5), vide which, it is ordered that after withdrawing benefit of higher pay scale (JST scale), pay of the petitioner be re-fixed. It is contention of counsel for the petitioner that the higher pay scale was granted to the petitioner under orders passed by this Court on 11.2.1997, in CWP No.17909 of 1996. Counsel further states that to get relief, case of the petitioner is squarely covered by ratio of Division Bench Judgment of this Court in Shakuntala Devi and another v. State of Haryana and others, (CWP No.6599 of 2007), decided on 4.3.2008. Faced with the situation, Shri Rathee has failed to show us anything to the contrary. In view of facts mentioned above, this writ petition is disposed of in the same terms as in Shakuntala Devi’s case (supra). (Jasbir Singh) Judge May 21, 2008 (K.C.
