Case Synopsis & Summary

The Kerala High Court, Ernakulam, heard a batch of writ petitions (WP(C) Nos. 22491/21, 23250/21, 23460/21, 23804/21 and 23872/21) on 11 April 2023. The petitioners are employees of the Subordinate Judiciary challenging downward fixation of their pay following a pay revision. They contend that even if downward fixation is justifiable, there can be no recovery from their salaries in view of the Supreme Court’s decision in State of Punjab and others v. Rafiq Masih (White Washer) (2015) 4 SCC 334. The Government Pleader represented the respondents, citing a related earlier decision in W.P.(C) No.12898/2021, where the Court directed notice of the error (if any), consideration of objections, and to pass appropriate orders before any recovery, while directing the court to consider the Rafiq Masih judgment. The Court disposed of the petitions by following the earlier guidance, directing the respondents to consider the petitioners’ objections to pay refixation and to pass orders after due consideration. Until such orders are issued, any proposed recovery from salary would be deferred. Petitioners must file objections within three weeks before the 3rd respondent (District Judge). The Court also instructed to advert to the Rafiq Masih decision in deciding the matter.

Submissions & Arguments

Contentions of Appellants / Petitioners

The petitioners argue that the downward refixation of pay for Subordinate Judiciary staff is a retrograde move that adversely affects them and creates a potential entitlement to recovery from salary only if legally permissible. They contend that, even if the downward revision has a legitimate basis, the Supreme Court’s ruling in State of Punjab and others v. Rafiq Masih (White Washer) (2015) 4 SCC 334 prohibits recovery from already fixed salary. Citing W.P.(C) No.12898/2021, they assert the Court’s directive to hear objections, note errors, and defer any recovery until proper orders are issued. They request setting aside or appropriately modifying fixation orders to prevent coercive salary recovery and to safeguard employees’ rights while the matter is reviewed. They urge the Court to follow the Rafiq Masih doctrine in the present cases and ensure due process for objection and redress.

Contentions of Respondents

The respondents submit that a similar issue arose in W.P.(C) No.12898/2021, where the Court directed that objections be heard and appropriate orders be passed before any recovery. They contend the matter requires careful examination of objections and adherence to due process, with deferment of recovery until orders are issued. They argue that the court should not prematurely quash downward fixations but ensure compliance with established procedures and the Supreme Court guidance (Rafiq Masih). They seek to uphold administrative decisions on pay fixation while safeguarding against arbitrary recoveries, and request timely consideration of objections by the 3rd respondent (District Judge).

They are before this Court seeking to set aside orders by which their pay has been refixed to their detriment. The petitioners apprehend recovery from their salary in view of the downward revision of pay. 2. The petitioners would contend that assuming that the downward revision is justifiable, even then no recovery can be effected from their salary in view of the judgment of the Apex Court in **State of Punjab and others v. Rafiq Masih (White Washer)** [2015 (4) SCC 334]. 3. Government Pleader representing the respondents submitted that similar issue relating to the staff of Subordinate Judiciary came up before this Court and this Court in W.P.(C) No.12898/2021 has directed the respondents to put the petitioners **WP(C)Nos.22491/21, 23250/21, 23460/21, 23804/21 & 23872/21** 13 on notice of the error in the fixation, if any, and to consider their objections and pass appropriate orders before effecting any recovery from them. A similar order can be passed in these writ petitions also. In the afore facts, following the judgment of this Court in W.P.(C) No.12898/2021, these writ petitions are disposed of directing the respondents to consider the objections raised by the petitioners in the matter of refixation of their pay and pass appropriate orders thereon. Till such orders are passed after considering the objections of the petitioners, the recovery from their salary, if proposed, shall stand deferred. While deciding the matter, the respondents shall also advert to the judgment of the Apex Court in **Rafiq Masih** (Supra). The petitioners shall file their objections before the 3[rd] respondent-District Judge within a period of three weeks. Sd/- **N.
