casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: SLP(C) No. 005388/1997 The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition filed by the State Fishery Officers Association challenging the Administrative Tribunal's decision. The petitioners sought arrears of monetary benefits from April 1, 1961, claiming a tripartite agreement with West Bengal government, but the Tribunal found the Finance Department was not party to the agreement and no formal government order was issued. The Court upheld the dismissal, holding that the government's decision to grant only non-monetary benefits prospectively from April 1, 1981 falls within executive policy discretion and is not arbitrary.
