Ajay Mohan Goel, Judge (Oral). By way of this execution petition, the petitioners have sought the execution of the judgment passed in CWPOA 4631 of 2020, titled as Mohinder Singh vs. State of H.P. & Anr, decided on 28.09.2023, which was disposed of in the following terms:-
“23. In my considered view, interference is required by this Court to the limited extent by issuing suitable direction to the respondents as under. These petitions are accordingly
disposed of with directions to the respondents to reconsider the case of the petitioners for suitable revision in their pay scale, keeping in view the rise in price index, if such factor was applied as one of the parameters while granting revision of pay scales to other categories under 2012 Rules. The entire exercise will be completed within eight weeks.” 1 Whether reporters of the local papers may be allowed to see the judgment?

2. Pursuant thereto, certain orders have been passed by the authority, including Annexure P-5 dated 30th August, 2025 and also Annexure R3/1, dated 26.04.2024.
3. Though, earlier this Court had suo motu taken cognizance of the non-compliance of its directions in terms of order dated 12th August, 2025, in the course of seeking compliance of the
judgment by observing that the said order was not in consonance with the order passed by this Court. Subsequent thereto, order Annexure P-5 has been passed. This Court is of the considered view that in the light of the directions, which were passed by this Court on 28/9/2023, if now the petitioners are aggrieved by Annexure P-5, then the petitioners would be well advised to assail the said order in accordance with law.
4.
Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners be allowed to withdraw this execution petition with liberty to assail Annexure P-5, order dated 30th August, 2025 including order dated 24th April 2024 also, by way of a fresh petition. These proceedings are allowed to be withdrawn with liberty to the petitioners to file a fresh writ petition assailing order dated 24th April
3 2024, Annexure R-3/A and also order dated 30th August, 2025, Annexure P-5, passed by the Authority.
(Ajay Mohan Goel) Judge 20th July, 2026.
