Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal of three teachers from Ballygunge Siksha Sadan regarding the implementation of the Third Pay Commission's recommendations for salary adjustments. The Court noted that while the management had implemented the pay hike, it refused to apply it retrospectively from January 1, 1988, as recommended. The Court held that there was no statutory obligation for private unaided institutions to implement these recommendations, thus upholding the management's decision and dismissing the appeal.
