{ 1 } S.B. CIVIL CONTEMPT PETITION NO.364/2008. (BHANWAR LAL MALI VS. HASTI MAL & ORS.) DATE OF ORDER : 12.01.2009. HON'BLE MR. GOVIND MATHUR, J. Mr. Mukesh Vyas for the petitioner. Mr. G.R.Punia for the respondents. Being aggrieved by non-grant of proper selection grade on completion of 9 and 18 years of service, the petitioners preferred a petition for writ (SBCWP No.2161/2005) that came to be disposed of on 27.07.2008 with a direction to the respondents that they will consider case of the petitioners in light of applicable rules without being guided by order passed by a committee constituted by the Vice Chancellor to settle the issue regarding grant of selection grades. In compliance of the order dated 27.02.2008, the Registrar, Maharana Pratap University of Agriculture and Technology, Udaipur passed an order dated 22.04.2008. By the order aforesaid, the pay scale of Rs.5000-8000 is given to the petitioners on completion of 9 years of service and a selection grade is given in the same pay scale by awarding two additional increments as per the provisions of Rule 26-A of the Rajasthan Civil Services Rules, 1951. { 2 } The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that the respondents have deliberately and willfully dis-obeyed the directions given by this Court by granting second selection grades to the petitioners in the same pay scale. Per contra, the stand of the respondents is that as per existing rules, a driver is having an avenue for promotion to the post of Jr. Mechanic, a post in the pay scale of Rs.5000- 8000, then to the post of Sr. Mechanic in the same pay scale with two additional increments. The respondents have allowed selection grades i.e. Of Rs.5000-8000 on completion of 9 years of service and thereafter the second selection grades i.e. Relating to the post of Sr. Mechanic. Whatever benefits granted to the petitioners i.e. in accordance with existing rules that prescribes selection grades in the pay scale relating to the next higher post. In view of the fact that the respondents have already re-examined case of the petitioners and allowed the selection scales as per existing rules, I am not inclined to proceed against the respondents under Contempt of the Courts Act, 1971. Accordingly, this contempt petition is dismissed, rule issued is discharged. However, by way of availing appropriate remedy, it { 3 } shall be open for the petitioners to challenge the order granting selection grades and rules adopted by the respondents for making promotion in the same pay scale.
