STATE OF RAJASTHAN vs GOPALDAS

The Supreme Court upheld the Rajasthan High Court's decision to grant revised pay scale S-10 to Upper Division Clerks (UDCs) of subordinate offices effective from September 1, 1981, citing discrimination as the basis for the ruling. The Court noted that other departments had received similar pay revisions from the same date, and the UDCs were unjustly treated by being assigned a later effective date of February 1, 1985. The Court found that the High Court's judgment was justified in correcting this disparity under the Rajasthan Civil Servants (Revised Pay Scales) Rules, 1983.
