The case was heard in the court of Justice Katju & Justice RM Lodha on 08 Mar 2010. Hon'ble Justice Katju gave the judgment as:
We are in full agreement with the judgment given by the Kerela High Court and stand by the judgment and that it should be extended to all officers.He further gave a relief of 6% interest.
Fine print awaited. Kudos and THREE CHEERS!

Congrats to the MC of RDOA.
The operative part of the orders is as below:
"We have carefully perused the judgment dated 5.10.1998
of the learned Single Judge as well as judgment dated 4.7.2003 of the
Division Bench of the High Court of Kerala and we respectfully agree
with the reasoning given therein for grant of rank pay retrospectively
from 1.1.1986. We also direct interest to be paid thereon at 6% p.a.
Accordingly, these writ petitions as well as the transferred writ
petitions are allowed.
No order as to the costs"
This does not mention "all officers",presumably the intervention application includes all members of RDOA at least?
This point may kindly be clarified.
Further what follow up action has been initiated?
The court order has also not mentioned any time-frame for the implementaion of the court orders.

Thanks
