The eleven petitioners claiming to be employees of the respondent<\/p>\n<p>no.2 Manav Bharti India International School have filed this petition<\/p>\n<p>claiming the following reliefs:-\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>         &#8220;a)       Direct the respondents to grant the prevailing pay scale of the<br \/>\n                   posts on which the petitioners are working.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>          b)       Direct the respondents to pay the revised pay scale as per Fifth<br \/>\n                   Pay Commission Report.&#8221;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>W.P.(C) No.9119-29\/2006,   CONT.

It is the case of the petitioners that by virtue of Section 10 of Delhi<\/p>\n<p>School Education Act, 1973, the respondent no.2 School being an aided<\/p>\n<p>recognized school is liable to pay to its employees wages not less than those<\/p>\n<p>of the employees of the corresponding status in the schools run by the<\/p>\n<p>Government of NCT of Delhi and which were not being paid to them.<\/p>\n<p>3.       Notice of the petition was issued. The respondent no.1 Directorate of<\/p>\n<p>Education in its counter affidavit has affirmed that the petitioners are entitled<\/p>\n<p>to scales of pay and allowance, pension, gratuity and other prescribed<\/p>\n<p>benefits under the aforesaid provision of law.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.       The counsel for the respondent no.2 School invites attention to the<\/p>\n<p>affidavit dated 11th October, 2007 filed by the respondent no.2 School in<\/p>\n<p>which it is stated that the respondent no.2 School has been paying the<\/p>\n<p>salaries\/wages and prescribed benefits in terms of Section 10 (supra) from<\/p>\n<p>the month of September, 2007.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.       The counsel for the petitioners also does not controvert so. He<\/p>\n<p>however states that the eleven petitioners were employed with the<\/p>\n<p>respondent no.2 School on dates varying from in the year 1991 till the year<\/p>\n<p>2003 and they are entitled to the emoluments in accordance with Section 10<\/p>\n<p>with effect from the date of their appointment, and which have not been paid<br \/>\nW.P.(C) No.9119-29\/2006,   CONT. CAS(C) No.1016\/2006 ,   CONT. CAS(C) No.1210\/2006 &amp; CONT.

The counsel for the respondent no.2 School contends that the first<\/p>\n<p>representation by the petitioners to the respondent no.1 Directorate of<\/p>\n<p>Education in this regard was only in the month of March, 2006. The counsel<\/p>\n<p>for the petitioners is unable to show any representation of a date prior thereto<\/p>\n<p>but states that even without the petitioners making such a representation the<\/p>\n<p>respondent no.2 School was obliged under the law to pay emoluments in<\/p>\n<p>accordance with law to the petitioners.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.       The second proviso to Section 10 (supra) provides that the default by<\/p>\n<p>the respondent no.2 School in paying the emoluments as provided therein<\/p>\n<p>can lead to withdrawal of recognition. Now that the respondent no.2 School<\/p>\n<p>has been paying the emoluments in accordance with law for the last atleast<\/p>\n<p>four years and soon after filing of the petition, it is not deemed expedient to<\/p>\n<p>entertain this writ petition qua the arrears. The writ remedy is not to be a<\/p>\n<p>substitute for the remedy of the petitioners to recover the arrears. Moreover<\/p>\n<p>the prayer of the petitioners in the writ petition also was with respect to the<\/p>\n<p>prevalent scales only and not with respect to the arrears. The petitioners<\/p>\n<p>having not made any grievance since the date of their appointment, cannot<\/p>\n<p>now claim a mandamus to the respondent no.1 Directorate of Education to<br \/>\nW.P.(C) No.9119-29\/2006,   CONT.

The three contempt petitions were filed averring the respondent no.2<\/p>\n<p>school to be in disobedience of the interim order dated 24 th May, 2006 in the<\/p>\n<p>writ petition. Though the writ petition, as aforesaid was claiming only the<\/p>\n<p>relief of granting the pay scale in accordance with the law but the petitioners<\/p>\n<p>filed CM.No. 6751\/2006 seeking interim relief.                                  It was the case of the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners in the said application that the petitioners apprehended that owing<\/p>\n<p>to their having preferred the present petition, the respondent no.2 School<\/p>\n<p>may become vindictive towards them.                                 The petitioners thus sought to<\/p>\n<p>restrain the respondent no.2 School from terminating, degrading or<\/p>\n<p>transferring their services from their then position.<\/p>\n<p>9.       On the aforesaid application of the petitioners for interim relief, vide<\/p>\n<p>order dated 24th May, 2006 the respondents were directed to maintain status<\/p>\n<p>quo with respect to the petitioner&#8217;s employment. The said order has<\/p>\n<p>continued in force, though not confirmed till now.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.      CM.No.5\/2008 has been filed by the respondent no.2 school for<\/p>\n<p>vacation of the said order.\n<\/p>\n<p>W.P.(C) No.9119-29\/2006,   CONT. CAS(C) No.1016\/2006 ,   CONT.

It is the case of the petitioners\/relators in the contempt petitions that<\/p>\n<p>notwithstanding the order of status quo, departmental proceedings were<\/p>\n<p>commenced against them.\n<\/p>\n<p>12.      The counsel for the respondent no.2 School states that departmental<\/p>\n<p>proceedings, as far as contempt case No. 1016\/2006 is concerned were<\/p>\n<p>commenced prior to the filing of the writ petition and as far as the other two<\/p>\n<p>cases are concerned, the departmental proceedings were commenced, though<\/p>\n<p>after the order dated 24th May, 2006 but prior to service thereof on the<\/p>\n<p>respondent no.2 School. It is further informed that on receipt of notice of<\/p>\n<p>contempt, further proceedings were not undertaken and vacation of the<\/p>\n<p>interim order was sought.\n<\/p>\n<p>13.      The counsel for the petitioners \/ relators with reference to reports of<\/p>\n<p>service of the notice of the petition and the interim order on the respondent<\/p>\n<p>no.2 School has contended that the respondent no.2 School first evaded to<\/p>\n<p>receive the service and thereafter the process server was not permitted to<\/p>\n<p>enter the school and the notice of the interim order received at the gate of the<\/p>\n<p>school by the watchman. It is thus contended that the commencement of the<\/p>\n<p>disciplinary proceedings was after the service of the interim order and thus it<\/p>\n<p>is disobedience of the order of the status quo.\n<\/p>\n<p>W.P.(C) No.9119-29\/2006,   CONT. CAS(C) No.1016\/2006 ,   CONT. CAS(C) No.1210\/2006 &amp; CONT.

It has been enquired from the counsel for the petitioners\/relators as to<\/p>\n<p>whether there can be a blanket stay on any proceeding against an employee<\/p>\n<p>merely because the employee has raised a dispute against the employer.<\/p>\n<p>15.      Though the counsel for the petitioners\/relators initially admitted that<\/p>\n<p>there can be no such blanket stay but subsequently contends that in the<\/p>\n<p>present case since this Court had passed an order directing the status quo to<\/p>\n<p>be maintained and which order is in the nature of the order under Section<\/p>\n<p>33(2)(b) of the ID Act, 1947, not only could the terms of employment of<\/p>\n<p>petitioner be not changed but even the disciplinary proceedings could not<\/p>\n<p>have been initiated. He further informs that the petitioner in Cont Cas(C)<\/p>\n<p>1210\/2006 has since been allowed to rejoin the duty but relief is however<\/p>\n<p>sought by the said petitioner qua his claim from the respondent no.2 School<\/p>\n<p>of his seniority and backwages etc.<\/p>\n<p>16.      I am of the view that initiation of disciplinary proceedings against the<\/p>\n<p>workman cannot be said to be in violation of the interim order. The status<\/p>\n<p>quo in the context in which it was sought cannot be construed as restricting<\/p>\n<p>the right of               respondent no.2 School of commencing the disciplinary<\/p>\n<p>proceedings also. Taking the parity of Section 33(2)(b), relied upon by the<\/p>\n<p>counsel for the petitioners himself, the same also requires only approval of<br \/>\nW.P.(C) No.9119-29\/2006,   CONT. CAS(C) No.1016\/2006 ,   CONT. CAS(C) No.1210\/2006 &amp; CONT.

No case of contempt is thus made out.<\/p>\n<p>17.      The counsel for the petitioners\/relators however states that since the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners\/relators did not participate in the disciplinary proceedings<\/p>\n<p>initiated against them claiming protection of the interim order, they should<\/p>\n<p>now be permitted to participate in the disciplinary proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>18.      The counsel for the respondent no.2 School has stated that the final<\/p>\n<p>order in the disciplinary proceeding has not been passed owing to the<\/p>\n<p>pendency of the present proceedings. He further states that the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner\/relator in Cont.Cas1210\/2006 was allowed to rejoin his duty<\/p>\n<p>without prejudice to the pending disciplinary proceedings. In the<\/p>\n<p>circumstances, it is deemed expedient to direct that the Disciplinary<\/p>\n<p>Authority\/Inquiry Officer before concluding the proceedings gives a fresh<\/p>\n<p>notice to the petitioner\/relator and gives an opportunity to the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner\/relator to putforth their defence.\n<\/p>\n<p>19.      The writ petition is therefore disposed of with liberty to the petitioners<\/p>\n<p>to agitate their claims if any for arrears before the appropriate Fora. It is<\/p>\n<p>clarified that the respondent no.2 School shall be entitled to take all defences<\/p>\n<p>available to it in opposition to the said claim if any made by the petitioners.<br \/>\nW.P.(C) No.9119-29\/2006,   CONT.
