    Case Summary: WP/4895/2026 Court Decision: The High Court of Bombay (Aurangabad Bench) allowed the writ petitions, directing the Education Officer to scrutinize petitioners' eligibility for one-step promotional pay scale (Ekstar) benefits under Government Resolutions dated 06.08.2002 and 29.02.2024 within 30 days. Eligible candidates working in tribal/PESA areas shall receive enhanced salary with arrears within 30 days; ineligible candidates will receive notice and hearing opportunity within 120 days before final orders. Key Reasoning: The court followed its precedent in Hiralal Jagannath Bawa (WP 8824/2021), noting that all similar cases warrant identical treatment. The court clarified that scrutiny must occur per Government Resolution 29.02.2024, and only after eligibility verification should benefits be granted—rejecting the state's argument that the original 2002 resolution didn't apply to Zilla Parishad employees. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
