Mr. Uday Pratap Singh, Advocate For Respondent/ State :
Mrs. Deepti Shukla, Dy. Govt. Advocate Hon'ble Shri Justice Goutam Bhaduri Order On Board 21-11-2019 1.
The grievance of the petitioner in the present writ petition is the non granting of revised pay scale on his completion of 8 years of service. 2.
The petitioner herein was initially appointed as Shiksha Karmi (Nagriya Niyak) and thereafter he appeared in the recruitment process of Assistant Teacher in the Panchayat Department and has been again taken in Panchayat Department. However, the Department is not accepting the total length of service rendered by the petitioners both under the Panchayat Department as well as under the Urban Administration Department for the purpose of granting of revised pay scale.
3.
Counsel for the parties fairly submit that the issue raised in the present writ petition stands squarely covered by a bunch of writ petitions decided by this Court on 27.10.2018, the leading case being WPS No. 6147 of 2018 (Shabnum Khatun Vs. State of Chhattisgarh and others). 4.
Given the aforesaid facts and circumstances of the case, the present writ petition also deserves to be and is accordingly disposed of in similar terms as in the case of Shabnum Khatun (supra). The petitioner would be entitled for the benefit as prayed for subject to verification of the case by the Department so far as the length of service and other eligibility criteria is concerned.
