Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the recommendations of the Special Committee regarding the pay scales and designations of officers in the Calcutta High Court, specifically addressing the parity between the Original Side and Appellate Side officers. The Court emphasized that the historical context and traditional roles of these officers warranted equal treatment in terms of emoluments, as supported by the First Pay Commission's recommendations. The judgment affirmed the need for maintaining status equality among judicial officers, thereby dismissing the appeals challenging the High Court's decision.
