Article 14 | Equal Treatment Mandatory for Similarly Situated Employees: CAT Principal Bench Directs Pay Parity for CPWD Workers
Central Administrative Tribunal rules that denial of benefits to similarly placed employees after granting them to one group violates Article 14, unless laches or acquiescence is proven. The judgment directs CPWD to extend 'highly skilled' category benefits to petitioners from the date of passing their trade test, ensuring pay and arrears parity.
