“QUOTE: In an other OA No:864/2014 Shri Om Prakash & others v. Secretary(NCERT) decided by this Tribunal the following directions were issued.

In our considered view, once an order has been passed by this Tribunal and it has also been upheld at the level of the Supreme Court; there is no question of waiting for an approval from any Govt. department for implementation of the same. The respondents, therefore, should have considered the representations of the applicants on merits.

In view of the above position, we dispose of this all at the admission stage itself with the direction to the respondents to consider the representations of the applicants in the light of the judgment of Punjab and Haryana High Court in CWP No.19387/2011 (supra) as upheld by the Apex Court in SLP (CC) No.7-167/2013(supra) and decide their cases under intimation to them. The aforesaid exercise shall be completed within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs‘.UNQUOTE.”

QUOTE: The respondents be directed to dispose the long pending matter and to take final decision after considering the afore noted order of this Tribunal. UNQUOTE.”

QUOTE: We agree with the arguments of the learned counsel for both parties and accordingly direct the respondents to consider the applicants representation in light of the related instructions and the scheme of MACP, and while doing so shall also keep in view the afore noted order of this Tribunal . Respondents shall thereafier , pass a reasoned and speaking order to be communicated to the applicants within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Any consequential action arising out of the aforesaid decision taken by the respondents on the representation shall be regulated within a further period of eight weeks from the date of decision. OA is disposed with aforesaid direction. UNQUOTE.”

(4) It is also very much pertinent to mention that Hon,ble CAT Chandigarh has already implemented the MACP in hierarchy of post for its own employees as per the existing orders passed by Hon,ble High Court Chandigarh & Supreme Court. After implementation of the same by Hon’ble CAT Chandigarh there is no matter to think more in implementation by any other Department.

(5). Prayer:
