The Bombay High Court ruled that a retired employee’s retiral benefits cannot be denied merely because his Scheduled Tribe certificate was invalidated after service - especially when he was never served the cancellation order. This upholds natural justice in administrative actions and ensures that procedural lapses by the state do not deprive retirees of statutorily guaranteed benefits under Government Resolution 14.12.2022.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court has ruled that state employees are entitled to pay scale increments based on actual completion of 10 and 20 years of service, not arbitrary administrative cutoffs. Authorities must reconsider claims under binding circulars and precedent, ensuring consequential benefits are granted without delay - a critical win for long-serving public sector workers denied rightful progression.

The Madhya Pradesh High Court reaffirmed that work-charged employees under the MP Pension Rules, 1979, must be regularized and granted regular pay scales upon completing three years of service. The ruling underscores statutory entitlements and parity in employment benefits, setting aside administrative delays in implementation.

Bombay High Court rules that employees under the Assured Career Progression (ACP) scheme are entitled to financial upgradation upon completing the stipulated service tenure, irrespective of educational qualifications. The judgment clarifies that governing resolutions conditioning upgradation on service duration alone must be honored, protecting employees from arbitrary denial of benefits.
