    2016 (II) ILR - CUT- 1127 (S.C.) SUPREME COURT OF INDIA JAGDISH SINGH KHEHAR, J. & S.A. BOBDE, J. CIVIL APPEAL NO. 213 OF 2013 (WITH BATCH) STATE OF PUNJAB & ORS. ……..Appellants .Vrs. JAGJIT SINGH & ORS. ……..Respondents (A) SERVICE LAW – Equal Pay for equal work – Whether temporarily engaged employees (daily wage employees, ad-hoc appointees, employees appointed on casual basis, contractual employees and the like), are entitled to minimum of the regular pay scale, alongwith dearness allowance (as revised from time to time) on account of their performing the same duties, which are discharged by those engaged on regular basis, against sanctioned posts ? The duties and responsibilities discharged by the temporary employees in the present bunch of appeals were the same as were being discharged by regular employees – It is not the case of the appellants that the respondent employees did not possess the prescribed qualifications for appointment on regular basis and they would not be entitled to pay parity – So the principle of “equal pay for equal work” would be applicable to all the concerned temporary employees, so as to vest in them the right to claim wages, at par with the minimum of the pay-scale of regularly engaged Govt. employees, holding the same post – Held, all the concerned temporary employees, in the present bunch of cases, would be entitled to draw wages at the minimum of the pay scale (at the lowest grade, in the regular pay scale), extended to regular employees, holding the same post. (Paras 57, 58) (B) SERVICE LAW – Principle of “equal pay for equal work” – Employees engaged on regular basis, claiming higher wages under such principle – “onus of Proof” – Person who claims it, has to proof parity in the duties and responsibilities of the subject post with the reference post alongwith other parameters described in paragraph 42 of the judgment which can be taken into consideration while dealing with the matter.

  • Hon'ble Supreme Court Should Refrain from Passing a Judgment on the Ayodhya Ram Janma Bhoomi – Babri Masjid Matter, in View
    Dated: 7.11.2019 To HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE OF INDIA SUPREME COURT OF INDIA BHAGWAN DAS ROAD NEW DELHI 110201 Hon’ble Supreme Court should refrain from passing a judgment on the Ayodhya Ram Janma Bhoomi – Babri Masjid matter, in view of the manifest massive manipulation of the issue and associated judicial process, by the ruling dispensations (be it Congress or BJP) to implement their political agendas. Judiciary has not yet adjudicated upon the 70 years old criminal fraud committed against the nation by so called ‘Hindu’ groups who planted Ram Lalla idols in the Masjid. The Congress, with help of the administration and Judiciary, maintained status quo in order to keep the Muslims trapped as a vote banks for decades – now the BJP has taken over with the diference that they are scaring Muslims to make inroads into Hindu vote bank. Four conspicuous Issues I. Criminal case fled on 23.12.1949, on installations of idols in Babri Masjid, (u/s 147, 448, 295, in Faizabad) II. Criminal matter on Babri Masjid demolition 1992, (initiated by Liberhan Commission, currently with CBI since 2017) III. Supreme Court Judgement 1994, Ismail Faruqi case regarding ‘Masjid not essential to Islam’ (1994, 6 SCC 360) IV. Supreme Court Judgement 1995, ‘Hinduism not a religion’ (Citation 1996 AIR 1113), (PM Modi speeches in Vancouver 17.4.2015, PTI) Hon’ble The Chief Justice of India, Let me state at the outset that I, the undersigned, am not aligned to any political ideology. Kindly see the disclaimer at the end of the letter.
