Fundamental Rule 23 | Pay Parity for Senior Officers Mandated Despite Administrative Delay : Delhi HC
Delhi High Court rules that senior officers denied pay parity with juniors due to administrative inaction-not individual fault-must be granted arrears for three years prior to rejection, with 6% interest. The judgment reinforces that continuing wrongs under FR 23 cannot be excused by bureaucratic delays, binding authorities to rectify pay discrepancies retroactively.
