This appeal has impugned the judgment and decree dated<\/p>\n<p>24.10.2007 which had reversed the finding of the trail judge<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                           Page 1 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n dated 20.12.2003 whereby the suit filed by the plaintiff Sh. S.K.<\/p>\n<p>Choudhary seeking a declaration (to the effect that he should be<\/p>\n<p>granted his second time financial upgradation after 13 years of<\/p>\n<p>service which had been denied to him be set aside and be<\/p>\n<p>declared null and void; further prayer that he should be placed in<\/p>\n<p>the pay scale of 15800-21100 with notional pay fixation of basic<\/p>\n<p>pay of Rs. 17150\/- from 01.01.1996 as also relief of mandatory<\/p>\n<p>injunction i.e. payment of arrears in the aforenoted pay scale<\/p>\n<p>w.e.f. 01.01.1996) had been dismissed. The impugned judgment<\/p>\n<p>had reversed this finding. Suit of the plaintiff stood decreed.<\/p>\n<p>2.    Plaintiff was employed with defendant no. 2 since June<\/p>\n<p>1984. He was an Executive Engineer. Vide the resolution of DVB<\/p>\n<p>dated 29.04.1998, provisional pay scale for executive engineers<\/p>\n<p>and superintendent engineers was worked out; this was a<\/p>\n<p>modification      of   an   earlier   office   order;   second   financial<\/p>\n<p>upgradation was permitted to the plaintiff after having completed<\/p>\n<p>13 years of service which he had completed in the year 1994; he<\/p>\n<p>was thus entitled to the second financial upgradation; one<\/p>\n<p>Mr.Jagdish Kumar had already got this benefit; plaintiff not<\/p>\n<p>having got this benefit, he had filed the present suit.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                                  Page 2 of 9<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p> 3.    In the written statement, it was stated that the second<\/p>\n<p>entitlement of the plaintiff for financial upgradation was 8 years<\/p>\n<p>after his first upgradation i.e. after 18 years of service. Plaintiff<\/p>\n<p>had not completed 18 years of service; Sh. Jagdish Kumar was<\/p>\n<p>working on an adhoc basis as an assistant engineer and he had<\/p>\n<p>thereafter been selected by the UPSC and even in his case, he<\/p>\n<p>was entitled for a second upgradation only after 18 years of<\/p>\n<p>service.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>4.    In replication, the plaintiff made reference to the case of<\/p>\n<p>one Mr. V.K. Sood who was given promotion after completion of<\/p>\n<p>13 years of service.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>5.    On the pleadings of the parties, following issues were<\/p>\n<p>framed:-\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>      &#8220;1.    Whether plaintiff is entitled to second time bound<br \/>\n      promotion after service of 13 years? OPP\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      2.     Whether plaintiff is entitled to get the benefits of past<br \/>\n      service rendered in the Government Organization for the present<br \/>\n      suit? OPP\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      3.     Whether plaintiff is liable to pay court fees on declaration?<br \/>\n      OPD\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>      4.     Relief.&#8221;\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>6.    Documentary evidence was led.              The documents adduced<\/p>\n<p>are, in fact, not in dispute.\n<\/p>\n<p>      A.     The first document is the office order of the DVB<\/p>\n<p>      dated 23.07.1997. In terms of this office order, the time<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                                       Page 3 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n       bound promotional scale was introduced in the DVB.                             It<\/p>\n<p>      states that the employees of the DVB shall be entitled for a<\/p>\n<p>      first time bound promotional scale after completion of 10<\/p>\n<p>      years       of   regular   service.        The     second      time     bound<\/p>\n<p>      promotional scale shall be given on a completion of further<\/p>\n<p>      8 years i.e. after 18 years of service from the date of their<\/p>\n<p>      induction.\n<\/p>\n<p>      B.      The second document is the office order dated<\/p>\n<p>      30.04.1998. This order modifies the existing pay scales of<\/p>\n<p>      the following persons. It reads as follows:<\/p>\n<p>      &#8220;To revise the pay scales of the officers\/employee, Delhi Vidyut<br \/>\n      Board w.e.f.        .1.1996 and to pay the allowances alongwith<br \/>\n      revised scales of pay or pay the Vidyut Board (Revised pay) Rules<br \/>\n      1998 (enclosed) as Appendix I) except in the case of Executive<br \/>\n      Engineer and Superintending Engineer in whose case the scales<br \/>\n      shall be as under which shall be provisional till further orders.<br \/>\n      Sl.No. Designation     Existing Scale          Revised scale\n<\/p>\n<p>      1. &#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<pre>\n      2.Suptd.

This document<\/p>\n<p>      had been heavily relied upon by the learned counsel for the<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                                             Page 4 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n       respondent to advance her submission that after 13 years<\/p>\n<p>      of service, the superintendent engineer is entitled to a<\/p>\n<p>      second financial upgradation.\n<\/p>\n<p>      C.     The   third   document   is   the   office   order   dated<\/p>\n<p>      20.11.2001. Vide this office order, the provisional pay scale<\/p>\n<p>      of the engineers which was being implemented w.e.f<\/p>\n<p>      01.01.1996 had been finalized.\n<\/p>\n<p>             This office order stated that the existing time bound<\/p>\n<p>      promotional pay scale will be allowed to continue.<\/p>\n<p>             Learned counsel for the appellant has pointed out<\/p>\n<p>      that the existing time bound promotional pay scale makes<\/p>\n<p>      the reference to the first scheme i.e. scheme of 21.07.1997<\/p>\n<p>      by virtue of which the second financial upgradation will be<\/p>\n<p>      granted only after 18 years of service and not after 13<\/p>\n<p>      years of service.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.    Arguments have been countered by the learned counsel for<\/p>\n<p>the respondent. It is pointed out that the provisional pay scale<\/p>\n<p>for superintendent engineers (which includes the plaintiff) had<\/p>\n<p>come into effect provisionally on 30.04.1998. This was the cut-off<\/p>\n<p>date; on this date, the plaintiff was admittedly eligible for the<\/p>\n<p>second upgradation as he had completed 13 years of service.<\/p>\n<p>This date would in fact be the relevant date for fixing the<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                               Page 5 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n financial upgradation of the eligibility criteria for the plaintiff.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, there is also no answer as to how Mr. V.K. Sood had<\/p>\n<p>been granted a financial upgradation after 13 years of service.<\/p>\n<p>Learned counsel for the respondent has drawn the attention of<\/p>\n<p>this court to the affidavit which had been filed before this court<\/p>\n<p>wherein this fact had been so stated in para 1.        Copy of the<\/p>\n<p>noting\/order pertaining to this second time bound promotion<\/p>\n<p>granted to Mr. V.K. Sood had also been perused.      This was vide<\/p>\n<p>order dated 13.06.2000. This document states that Mr. V.K. Sood<\/p>\n<p>had completed 13 years of group A service; he was liable for the<\/p>\n<p>revised pay scale with effect from 01.01.1996.<\/p>\n<p>8.    A counter affidavit (to this affidavit) had been filed by the<\/p>\n<p>appellant.    Para 7 states that Mr. V.K. Sood had only been<\/p>\n<p>granted a provisional revised pay scale which was subsequently<\/p>\n<p>adjusted once the pay scales were regularized in the year 2001.<\/p>\n<p>      At the request of the learned counsel for the respondent,<\/p>\n<p>the record has also been produced from the Department.          This<\/p>\n<p>record shows that the second financial upgradation which had<\/p>\n<p>been granted to Mr. V.K. Sood was only a provisional measure;<\/p>\n<p>this financial upgradation had been adjusted at the time of<\/p>\n<p>finalization of his accounts.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.    The documents on record support the case of the appellant.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                            Page 6 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n An employee was entitled to claim a second time bound<\/p>\n<p>promotional scale only after 18 years; the question of a second<\/p>\n<p>financial upgradation after a period of 13 years was only<\/p>\n<p>encompassed as a provisional measure; i.e. till the time and when<\/p>\n<p>the final pay scale was notified on 20.11.2001. It stated that<\/p>\n<p>      &#8220;the existing second time bound promotional scale scheme<br \/>\n      is already continued&#8221;.\n<\/p>\n<p>10.   This existing second time bound promotional scheme<\/p>\n<p>admittedly refers to the scheme of 23.07.1991. This is also not<\/p>\n<p>disputed before this court. In this view of the matter, it is clear<\/p>\n<p>that the second financial upgradation could have been granted to<\/p>\n<p>the plaintiff only after 18 years of his service.   The impugned<\/p>\n<p>judgment holding otherwise is a perverse finding. It is liable to<\/p>\n<p>be set aside.\n<\/p>\n<p>11.   The contention of the learned counsel for the appellant that<\/p>\n<p>she had completed the 13 years of her service admittedly on or<\/p>\n<p>before 30.04.1998 i.e. at the time when the provisional pay scale<\/p>\n<p>had been introduced and thus the plaintiff was eligible on that<\/p>\n<p>date and had to be considered is an argument to be noted only to<\/p>\n<p>be rejected. Admittedly, as per the case of the respondent, the<\/p>\n<p>office order of 30.04.1998 was provisional; the word \u201eprovisional\u201f<\/p>\n<p>as is evident from its meaning makes reference to a temporary<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                           Page 7 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n period i.e. a fill-in-gap arrangement till the time when the matter<\/p>\n<p>is finally decided.         Admittedly, this provisional pay scale of<\/p>\n<p>30.04.1998 was finally settled on 20.11.2001, on which date the<\/p>\n<p>office    order   clearly    states   that    the   existing   time     bound<\/p>\n<p>promotional scale scheme will continue; there is no dispute that<\/p>\n<p>the existing second time bound promotional scale scheme makes<\/p>\n<p>reference to the scheme of 23.07.1997 which stipulated that a<\/p>\n<p>second financial upgradation will be granted to an employee only<\/p>\n<p>after 18 years of service.\n<\/p>\n<p>12.           Reliance by the learned counsel for the respondent on<\/p>\n<p>the judgment reported in (2010) 2 SCC 422 Union of India Vs.<\/p>\n<p>Kartick Chandra Mondal is misplaced.                In this case the office<\/p>\n<p>memorandum was under consideration which was in express<\/p>\n<p>language; there being no intention expressed in the notification<\/p>\n<p>that it would apply retrospectively; it could not be given a<\/p>\n<p>retrospective effect. Ratio is wholly inapplicable. In the instant<\/p>\n<p>case what is under consideration and vehemently relied upon by<\/p>\n<p>the respondent is the office order dated 30.4.1998; the intent<\/p>\n<p>gathered from this document is clear; it clearly specifies that this<\/p>\n<p>pay scale is only provisional.\n<\/p>\n<p>13.      The arguments on discrimination has also been answered<\/p>\n<p>after the perusal of the record.             The provisional upgradation<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                                       Page 8 of 9<\/span><br \/>\n granted to Mr. V.K. Sood had been adjusted against his final<\/p>\n<p>dues.\n<\/p>\n<p>14.     The appeal is accordingly allowed. Substantial question of<\/p>\n<p>law is answered in favour of the appellant and against the<\/p>\n<p>respondent.       Suit of the plaintiff is decreed. Pending application<\/p>\n<p>is disposed of.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                             INDERMEET KAUR, J.\n<\/p>\n<p>MAY 05, 2011<br \/>\nSS\/nandan<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">RSA No. 16\/2008                                               Page 9 of 9<\/span>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi High Court Bses Yamuna Power Ltd. vs Sh.
