Instead of challenging the orders passed, pursuant to the disciplinary proceedings the respondent moved the authority under the Payment of Wages Act and that authority without appreciating the scope of the impugned order passed pursuant to the disciplinary proceedings set aside the order on the ground that the order passed in the disciplinary proceedings did number prescribe any time limit for the minimum stage of time scale and, therefore, it was bad in law.
Against the respondent disciplinary action was taken which culminated in the orders of punishment reducing the pay to the minimum stage of time scale.
The revision filed in the High Court against that order also failed.
Though numberice was served, the respondent has chosen to remain absent.Hence, this appeal by special leave.
