Judgement

RAJENDRA BABU, J. :- The respondents, who are contract casual workers, filed a writ petition before the High Court contending that in view of the order of the High Court dated August 13, 1993 in FMAT No. 3614 of 1992, they are entitled to wages on par with class IV employees of the appellant and sought for directions to make such payment as per the pay revised from time to time. The appellant opposed the chain made in the writ petition on the ground that against the order of the Calcutta High Court in FMAT No. 3614 of 1992, an appeal by special leave was filed before this Court which was disposed of with certain observations. The order of the High Court in FMAT No. 3614 of 1992, having merged in the order of this Court and this Court having not specifically stated that the wages payable to the respondents would be on par with Class IV employees of the appellants, the payment of wages as claimed by the casual workers is untenable.

2. The learned single Judge of the High Court analysing the order of the High Court in FMAT No. 3614 of 1992 and the order of this Court concluded that this Court having affirmed the reasoning of the Division Bench and there is no conflict thereto.
