RADHEY SHYAM PANDEY vs KANPUR DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of the appellant's entitlement to arrears of salary as a stenographer after being appointed retroactively. The court noted that the U.P. Public Service Tribunal had previously ruled in favor of the appellant, directing the payment of arrears. However, the High Court's decision to challenge this ruling was based on the centralization of stenographer services under the Uttar Pradesh Urban Planning and Development Act, 1973. The Supreme Court ultimately upheld the Tribunal's order, affirming the appellant's right to the arrears.
