Surya Kant, J.@mdashThe petitioner seeks quashing of the order dated 8.1.2008 passed by the Central Administrative Tribunal, Chandigarh

Bench, Chandigarh as well as the subsequent order dated 15.02.2008 of the Tribunal rejecting the petitioner''s review application against the order

dated 8.1.2008. A direction to grant the petitioner skilled category pay scale of Rs. 950-1500 from the date of his initial appointment in terms of

the notifications dated 16.10.1981 and 11.5.1983 has also been sought. Learned counsel for the parties are ad-idem that the question raised in this

case has been settled by this Court in CWP No. 19729-CAT of 2006 (Commander Works Engineer, Chandimandir and others versus MES No.

363164 Baldev Singh Valveman and others decided on 6.9.2010, against which SLP (Civil) No. CC08414/2011 has been dismissed by the

Hon''ble Supreme Court. The only difference is that the above-stated writ petition was preferred by the official respondents against the subsequent

order of the Tribunal in which claim of similarly placed employees like the petitioner was accepted. Since the Tribunal took different view in its later

order which has been upheld by this Court and the Apex Court, we set-aside the order of the Tribunal and remit the case for afresh decision. An

appropriate decision shall be taken by the Tribunal within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order.

2. The parties are directed to appear before the Tribunal on 30.09.2013. Dasti.
