HON'BLE JUSTICE REETOBROTO KUMAR MITRA

The Calcutta High Court allowed Salil Kumar Pani's writ petition and directed the District Inspector of Schools to re-fix his pay scale under ROPA-2019 with an additional three percent increment. The court found that a March 22, 2017 government memo that had ordered pay rectification was previously set aside by another court judgment, thereby removing any impediment to the petitioner's rightful entitlement to the increment for higher responsibilities assumed when the school was upgraded to higher secondary status. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
