IV CPC Rank Pay Contempt Petition: Gist of Rejoinder Affidavit filed by RDOA
For info of officers.
It is respectfully submitted that the contention of the
Contemnors stating that this Hon’ble Court order of 04.09.2012 has been
complied with in letter and spirit is totally false and misleading and far from
the truth. The implementation instruction issued by MoD dated 27.12.2012 in compliance
with this Hon’ble Court order of 04.09.2012 is bereft with non compliances. It
is pertinent to mention that from the following paras it is absolutely clear
that the directions issued by this Hon’ble Court have not been complied with in
letter and spirit and even in the admitted case there is no compliance. The non
compliances which have arisen due to the implementation instructions issued by
MoD are listed below. These have been discussed at length in subsequent paras.
(a) Non compliance of this Hon’ble Court order
of 04.09.2012 within the stipulated time limit of 31 May 2013. The payment of
arrears on account of pension by CDA Pension Allahabad, is yet to start.
(b) Restricting payment of interest @ 6% on the
arrears admissible on account of refixation of pay and pension beyond 31 May
2013 as orderd by this Hon’ble Court from 01.01.2006.
(c) Limiting the scope of this Hon’ble Court
order of 04.09.2012 by changing the text of the order ‘with effect from
01.01.1986’ to ‘as on 01.01.1986’ thereby denying the benefits of arrears of
pay and pension to those officers who got promoted on any day after 01.01.1986
and those officers who retired before 01.01.1986.
(d) Non applicability of the order dated
04.09.2012 of this Hon’ble Court to subsequent V and VI Pay Commission where in
also rank pay was deducted at the time of pay fixation and recommendation of
pay scales.
(e) Non revision of minimum initial pay of each
rank after removal of the deduction of rank pay step as directed by this
Hon’ble Court in terms of table given at para 6(a)(ii) of SAI 1/S/87 which was
also arrived at after deduction of rank pay as applicable to each rank.
(f) Non revision of top of integrated scale
which was also fixed after deduction of rank pay as admissible to the rank of
Brig.
(g) Non revision of pension of pre 1986
retirees consequent to refixation of pay as on 01.01.1986 and thereafter on
01.01.1996 and 01.01.2006 after removal of deduction of rank pay step.
