UNION OF INDIA THR.SECRETARY vs ANJU JAIN

The Supreme Court upheld the Central Administrative Tribunal's order allowing the respondents' application for re-fixation of pay under the ACP Scheme, stating that the respondents, initially appointed as Junior Machine Operators, were entitled to the pay scale of Rs.1150-1500 from their date of appointment. The Court emphasized that the re-designation of their posts to Data Entry Operators did not negate their right to the higher pay scale. The appeal by the Union of India was dismissed, affirming the CAT's decision.
