SMT NISHA BOSE, SR GP THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 15.09.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: **WP(C) NO. 18338 OF 2021** **23** ## **JUDGMENT** The petitioners herein are aided school teachers serving in the Lower Primary, Upper Primary, High School and Higher Secondary under various managements in Palakkad District. They are aggrieved by the order issued by the respondents directing them to return the amounts paid to them for undertaking the enumerator work in connection with the preparation of the National Population Register (NPR) on the ground that they had been granted Higher Earned Leave than what was eligible to them. 2. It is the case of the petitioners that they have undertaken the enumerator work in connection with the preparation of the NPR on the basis of the list prepared by the District Administration. They were issued with letters by the revenue authorities and they were directed to report for the Census Training Programme to be held on 5th -7th of April, 2020 in various centres in the Palakkad District. After completion of the training, they had undertaken the census operation from 12.4.2010 to 27.5.2010. All the petitioners are stated to have worked for 45 days after the training. The revenue authorities have certified that the petitioners have engaged themselves during the aforesaid period in connection with the Census duty as is evident from Exts.P4 to P4(b) issued in respect of petitioner No. 12, 43 and 102. They contend that similar certificates have been issued to others as well. **WP(C) NO. 18338 OF 2021** **24** The Headmaster of the respective school have sanctioned Earned Leave Surrender for a period of 24 days and the same has been sanctioned by the concerned AEOs after verifying the original of the duty certificate. The petitioners assert that they had worked for 48 days during vacation including the three days training programme. 3. According to the petitioner, the Government on recommendation of the Census Department had issued order dated 14.10.2009 prescribing the conditions for engaging teachers for the purpose of conducting census. They contend that based on request from various organizations, the Government had issued Ext.P1 order which states that teachers who are engaged in Census duty and similar works are eligible for proportionate earned leave for the period during which they are prevented from availing vacation as provided in Rule 81 Part I of the KSR and the above Earned Leave should be sanctioned to those teachers who engage in such works during vacation time. Later, Ext.P2 order was issued by the Government ordering that the workers, the details of which are mentioned therein, who are appointed as supervisors/enumerators will be allowed the concession of absenting themselves from the institution/office on census duty for half day either in the forenoon or in the afternoon on 32 working days from 12.4.2010 to 27.5.2010 or the full day for 16 working days between 12.4.2010 to 27.5.2010 or the full day for 16 working days between 12.4.2010 to 27.5.2010 for the house listing and housing census and preparation of NPR. **WP(C) NO. 18338 OF 2021** **25** 4. It is further contended that later by Ext.P5 order dated 20.4.2013, the Government turned around and ordered that Earned Leave Surrender can be granted only for eight days proceeding on the premise that the house listing work can be completed in 16 days. According to the petitioners, Ext.P5 order was passed about three years after Ext.P1 order. It is further submitted that Ext.P2 order is not applicable to teachers of the vacation department and the same has been clarified by the census department by Ext.P3 letter. 5. The petitioners state that they, having been worked for 45 days and undergone training for three days, could not have been denied the rights which were granted to them by Exts.P1 and P2 orders. They contend that the Government after considering the grievance of the petitioners had issued Ext.P6 order and had directed the respondents not to implement Ext.P5 Government Order until further notice. 6. According to the petitioners, after about 7 years, Ext.P7 letter has been issued on 28.10.2020 as per which directions have been issued by the 4th respondent directing all the teachers to repay the additional amount granted to them for a period of 16 days and expeditious steps are being taken to recover the same. The petitioners contend that the aided school teachers in Ernakulam District had occasion to approach this Court being aggrieved by Ext.P7 letter and this Court by judgment dated 31.3.2021 had interfered with the orders of the Deputy Director and interdicted the recovery of the Earned Leave amount. It is in the afore circumstances that the petitioners are before **WP(C) NO. 18338 OF 2021** **26** this Court seeking the following reliefs: (i) issue a writ of certiorari or other appropriate writ order or direction setting aside the Exts.P5 and P7. 7. I have heard Sri. Sandesh Raja. K., the learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and Smt. Nisha Bose, the learned senior Government Pleader. 8. I have considered the submissions. The materials placed on record reveals that the petitioners were engaged as enumerators and after undergoing training for three days they had conducted house listing and housing census operation in connection with the preparation of NPR from 12.04.2010 to 27.05.2010. Exhibits P1 would reveal that they have been granted the benefit of earned leave as per the relevant provisions of Part I of the KSR. There is no case for the respondents that any benefit was obtained by the petitioners on account of any fault or error or reasons that can be attributed to him/her so as to initiate a recovery of amount which is stated to have been paid in excess. 9. I find that identical issue was raised by teachers in various schools under the Education Department in Ernakulam District and a learned Single Judge of this Court relying on the declaration of law in **State of Punjab v. Rafiq Masih (White Washer)** (2015(4) SCC 334) had interfered with the orders passed by the Deputy Director. While disposing of the writ petition, this Court had occasion to observe as follows in paragraph Nos. 8 to 13 of the **WP(C) NO. 18338 OF 2021** **27** ## judgment in W.P.(C) No. 9205/2020. “8. The petitioners specifically contend that they had been engaged as Enumerators in the year 2010 and they had been given the benefit of earned leave as per Rule 81 of Part I KSR; and that this was offered to them on the strength of valid orders, without any misrepresentation or reasons that can be attributed against them. 9. They say that, therefore, merely because Government now says that the process of Enumeration could have been done in 16 days and therefore, that teachers are entitled only to 8 days of earned leave, the Deputy Director could not have recovered any amount from them on such basis. 10. They say that this is more so because the Government themselves have issued an order dated 14.05.2013, freezing their earlier order directing recovery; and that this is still in force. 11. As a corollary adjunct to the afore contentions, petitioners say that even if any recovery is possible, the same is impermissible at this time on account of the ratio of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Rafiq Masih (Supra) and that therefore, the impugned orders be set aside. 12. There can be no doubt that the ratio in Rafiq Masih (Supra) is unmistakable that unless a benefit has been obtained by an employee on account of any fault or error or reasons that can be attributed to him/her, such recovery is not possible after more than eight or nine years, as has been attempted in this case. 13. The declarations in Rafiq Masih (Supra) make it further indubitable that the recovery ordered against persons who are nearing retirement, with respect to benefits that were given to them under valid and legal orders, cannot be recovered merely on the ground that such **WP(C) NO. 18338 OF 2021** **28** sanctions were in error at the time when they were issued.” I respectfully concur with the observations and finding of the learned Single Judge. In that view of the matter, the petitioners are entitled to succeed. The writ petition will stand allowed. Exts.P5 and P7 will stand quashed. No costs. **Sd/-** **RAJA VIJAYARAGHAVAN V** **JUDGE** ps **WP(C) NO. 18338 OF 2021** **29** ## **APPENDIX OF WP(C) 18338/2021** PETITIONER (S) EXHIBITS: Exhibit P1 TRUE COPY OF THE GOVERNMENT ORDER G.O.(RT) NO.2851/2010/G.EDN.
