7th Pay Commission: Private school management cannot deny salary and allowances to teachers/employees under the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission, citing their poor financial condition.
While making this remark, the High Court, while giving a verdict in favor of teachers, outrightly rejected the arguments of the private school, which had expressed its inability to pay salary and allowances under the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission citing poor economic condition.
Justice V. Kameswara Rao has ordered Alcon Public School to pay salary and allowances to the teachers as per the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission. For this, he has also ordered the school management to fix the salary of teachers under the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission.
Apart from this, within three months, the dues so far have been asked to be paid. The court has ordered the school management to pay six percent interest if the arrears are not paid within three months.
The High Court has given this decision on a petition filed by advocate Ashok Agrawal on behalf of Omita Maggu and other teachers. He had accused the Alcon Public School management of not paying salaries and allowances as per the recommendation of the 7th Pay Commission along with cutting the salaries of teachers on a large scale during the Corona epidemic.
Also refund the money deducted during the corona epidemic: The High Court has also ordered the school management to refund the money deducted in the salary of teachers during the corona epidemic.
The school management has been given three months for this. Also said that if the amount of salary deducted during the epidemic is not returned within three months, 6 percent interest will also have to be paid on this amount.
