Er.Gurcharan Singh Grewal & Anr vs Punjab State Electricity Board & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the appeals arising from the High Court's orders regarding the dismissal of a writ petition and subsequent review petitions concerning pay fixation under service law. The Court held that the High Court erred in limiting the relief to one petitioner based on a misinterpretation of the written statement, emphasizing that both petitioners were similarly situated and entitled to equal pay as per the principle of 'equal pay for equal work'. The Court set aside the High Court's orders and directed that the case be reconsidered in light of the claims made by both petitioners.
