I am in central government service. I am a Gr. B non gazetted servant. I was in the scale of pay Rs 5500 – 175 – 9000. I was I ACP as per V CPC and was given the scale of pay of Rs 8000 – 275 – 13500 w.e.f 1.3.2000. I was reverted to the scale of pay of Rs 6500 – 225 – 10,500 w.e.f 1.4.2006 as the dpt. forgot to split our cadre into Gr I & II as per the recommendations of V CPC. The reversion was contested in CAT and ultimately in the form of Civil appeal in the Hon Supreme Court. G.O.I stopped adhoc N.P.L.Bonus w.e.f 1.3.2000 and continued to deny bonus.Is the action of Food & Nutrition Board, M[O W&CD, G.O.I is justified in denying bonus to a Gr B N.G.O when ACP rule clearly says that ACP shall not changfe the status of the official irrespective of the scale of pay granted under ACP?
