In today's news, I have come across the following
observation of Supreme Court,
"State and public employers have an obligation to
address as a measure of public interest, the ill
effects of rise in the cost of living on account of price
rise, which results in fall in real wages.This obligation
should be discharged on a periodic basis".
The Court also said what should be the extent of
pay revision are undoubtedly a matter falling within
the domain of policy making.
Can we expect the Court to make a similar statement
at the time of hearing our pending case in SC?
After all,, pension is deferred wages.
