Interesting legal battle unfolding in Kerala high court
Employee unions have challenged the decision of State Govt to restrict part of the salary for 5 months by executive order.
Prima facie opinion of the Honble Court is that such denial of pay amounts to denial of right of pay.
Salary is not a bounty.
The case will unfold and final orders will be of interest to all.
No doubt that present situation calls for sacrifices from all.
But how to go about it is a question.
Whether Govt can curtail salary-even partly to meet the strained situation the whole nation is facing?
