Order on Board
26.10.2026

7
1. The present writ petition has been filed by the petitioners, who
were working under the respondent department on various posts.
The petitioners have challenged the decision taken by the State
of Chhattisgarh on 02.03.2012, whereby they have been denied
the benefit of revision of the pay scale for the period from
01.01.2006 to 31.10.2011.
2. At the very outset, learned counsel appearing for the parties
would submit that the issue involved in this writ petition has
already been considered and decided by this Court vide order
dated 12.08.2026 passed in WPS No. 5791/2026 (Gopinath
Pillai & Ors. vs. State of Chhattisgarh & Others) , wherein this
Court held as under:-
“6. Taking into consideration the law laid down by the
Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matters of Bihar State
Beverages Corpn. Ltd. (supra) and Satya Brata
Chowdhury (supra) and considering the fact that the
identical issue has already been considered and decided
by this Court in WPS No.697/2013 and other connected
matters by common order dated 11/07/2024 which has
duly been affirmed by the Division Bench in WA
No.622/2024 decided on 30/09/2024, the present writ
petitions are also disposed of in terms of para 7 of the
order passed in WPS No.697/2013 and other connected
matters. Para 7 of the said order is quoted below:-

8
“7. As the Circular dated 02.03.2012 has
already been quashed meaning thereby the
petitioners would be entitled to get the benefit
of the 6th pay commission and other revisions
of salary from 01.01.2006 till 31.10.2011.
Thereafter, the State Authorities are directed
to calculate the amount of arrears of salary of
the petitioners and to make payment and
decide the representation subject to
verification of the amount claimed by the
petitioners preferably within a period of 150
days from the date of receipt of a copy of this
order”
7. Accordingly, all the writ petitions are disposed of. ”
3. In view of the above and having considered the submissions
made by learned counsel for the parties and having gone through
the materials available on record, it is evident that the facts and
issue involved in this petition is identical to WPS No. 5791/2026,
this Court deems it appropriate not to take a view other than what
has been taken in the aforesaid writ petition.
4. Accordingly, the present petition is disposed of in terms of the
order dated 12.08.2026 passed in WPS No. 5791/2026 .
