C.W.P. No. 8014 of 2011 [ 1 ] IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA, CHANDIGARH C.W.P. No. 8014 of 2011 Date of Decision: July 27,2011 Mohan Singh and others ............................... Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and others ................... Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Ms. Justice Ritu Bahri 1.To be referred to the Reporters or not? 2. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Mr. K.S.Kahlon, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. Kavita Arora, AAG, Punjab. ... RITU BAHRI, J. (Oral) This writ petition is for quashing of the order (Annexure P-6) whereby the pay of the petitioners has been re-fixed in the pay scale of `3120-5160. They are seeking fixation of their pay in the pay scale of `3120-6200 which has been granted to the similarly situated Constables by this Court while rendering judgment in Amar Nath v. State of Punjab & others (C.W.P. No. 8573 of 2008 decided on May 28,2009) (Annexure P-7). C.W.P. No. 8014 of 2011 [ 2 ] Counsel for the State does not dispute that the matter is squarely covered in favour of the petitioners in view of the aforesaid judgment wherein it has been observed that the pay of the petitioner has been re-fixed and later on ACP granted has been withdrawn and his pay has been reduced. In the reply filed by the Accountant General, it has specifically been stated that the office of the Accountant General, Punjab, never suggested the Administrative Department to reduce/re-fix the pay of the petitioner. In view of this factual position, it has been held that benefit of ACP was without misrepresentation or fraud. In view of the stand taken by the Accountant General, the impugned order was set aside and petitioner was held entitled to the benefit of ACP. In the present case, following the ratio of the judgment in Amar Nath's case (supra) the writ petition is allowed and the petitioners' case shall be considered and pay shall be re-fixed in view of the judgment in Amar Nath's case (supra) (Annexure P7) passed by this Court. 27.7.2011 ( RITU BAHRI ) Rupi JUDGE
