Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Tribunal's decision that the original application for pay fixation by the petitioners was barred by limitation, as the grievance regarding the pay anomaly arose in 1976 and no action was taken until 1995. The Court rejected the argument that the cause of action was continuing, affirming that the petitioners, having retired before the relevant judgment, could not claim relief. Consequently, the petition was dismissed as devoid of merit.
