Orders
The Supreme Court dismissed Karnataka's appeals against non-graduate Junior Engineers (Division-II) who sought to retain their pay scales as of 9.1.1974. The Court held that Karnataka could not slash the engineers' existing pay when creating separate cadres with lower pay scales, and ruled that any pay exceeding the new Division-II scale must be protected as personal pay under Karnataka Civil Services Rules 42 and 43. The State was directed to fix pay scales protecting employees' pay as of 9.1.1974 within three months. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
