| Issues of daily wagers in judiciary: SC stays proceeding before HC | | | Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, Mar 23: Supreme Court has stayed proceedings before the J&K High Court in a plea pertaining to issue of daily wagers of judiciary. A bench of Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra issued notice, fixing a returnable date within four weeks, on a special leave petition filed by the government against an order by high court, asking former not to link issue of daily wagers in judiciary with those of other departments.
"There shall be a stay of further proceedings in OWP No. 260/2014 and SWP No. 630/2016 pending before the High Court of Jammu and Kashmir at Srinagar," said the bench also comprising of Justice A M Khanwilkar and Justice D Y Chandrachud.
The High Court had on Monday chided commissioner secretaries of law and finance departments regarding issue of daily wagers of judiciary. "The Officers are not present and no exemption in anticipation of their appearance is sought which reflects not only the non-seriousness of the authorities towards the orders of the court but also of their confidence in derailing the process by filing the SLP before the Supreme Court," a division bench of Justice Ali Mohammad Magrey and M K Hanjura said.
"We would have proceeded against both the officers by framing Rule against them, but the judicial proprietary demands that we may wait for the outcome of the SLP," the court said, adding, "Till next date consideration of the matter, as such, is deferred." Last week, the court termed government the approach of linking issue of daily wagers of judiciary with other government departments as 'brazen violation' of its orders which amounts to contempt. |
