Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Gujarat High Court, affirming that the withdrawal of the higher grade scale granted to the appellant was justified due to his failure to pass the departmental examination, despite the examination not being conducted earlier. The Court emphasized that the appellant's eligibility for the higher grade scale was contingent upon passing the examination as per the applicable government policy. The Court ruled that the appellant was given due process as per the High Court's directive, and thus the appeal was dismissed.
