Orders
The Calcutta High Court allowed the writ petition of retired Headmaster Swapan Gain, setting aside an arbitrary order by respondent no. 3 that questioned his salary increments without any reasoned basis. The court directed the state to refund amounts deducted from his gratuity, refixate his pay scale by May 15, 2026, and disburse all consequential pension benefits within six weeks, relying on Supreme Court precedent regarding rightful employee entitlements. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
