Case Summary: WP(C) No. 144/2024 The High Court of Jammu & Kashmir rejected the All India Lumberdars Association's request for mandamus directing enhancement of remuneration, holding that honorarium policy falls within the government's sole prerogative and cannot be judicially compelled. However, the court found the respondents legally obligated to release pending honorarium from February 2023 onwards to working Lumberdars without unjustified retention, directing payment within three months. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
