Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the entitlement of the petitioner to full salary from June 05, 1996, following a series of legal proceedings regarding his service status in the Indian Administrative Service. The Court held that the petitioner, having been denied senior time scale and subsequently suspended, was entitled to the senior time scale as per its earlier ruling in Civil Appeal No. 3464 of 1987. However, the petitioner’s failure to comply with procedural requirements for receiving subsistence allowance led to the dismissal of his claim for full salary, affirming the decision of the lower authorities.
