Judgment & Decree
Petitioner in person (in Civil Petition No. 86). Nemo for Respondents (in Civil Petition No. 86). Nusratullah, Senior Advocate Supreme Court with Ejaz Ahmad Khan, Advocate‑on‑Record (in Civil Petition No. 97). Respondent in person (in Civil Petition No. 97). Date of hearing: 11th June, 1985. M.S.H. QURAISHI, J.‑‑Sh. Amar Maftoon, a teacher in N.P.S. 16 in the Education Department of the Province of the Punjab, was posted/adjusted on his "own pay and grade", as Subject Specialist, Government College for Elementary Teachers Training, Sargodha, a post in N.P.S. 17, which he jointed on 13‑5‑1981. His promotion was later regularised with effect from 20‑9‑1983. He claimed that the regularization of his promotion should be effective from 13‑5‑1981 and that he should be paid the salary and allowances in N.P.S. 17 accordingly. The Punjab Service Tribunal, before whom he came in appeal, held him entitled not only to the minimum of N.P.S. 17 but also to the annual increments in that scale with effect from 13‑5‑1981. As the relief of regularisation of promotion with effect from 13‑5‑1981 was not granted by the Tribunal, he has filed Civil Petition No. 86 of 1984 for leave to appeal.
2. The Province, too, feeling aggrieved by the order allowing annual increments in N. P. S. 17 has sought leave to appeal by the other petition.
3. The petitions raise questions of law of public importance. Leave to appeal is, therefore, granted in both of them. M.B.A. Leave granted.
