First respondent joined the service as casual labourer in the department of Agriculture on daily wages on 1.6.1979 and he was granted temporary status with effect from 1.9.1993 by order dated 9.10.1996. On 20.2.2001, he was offered temporary Group D post of Peon in the scale of pay of Rs.2550 - 55 - 2660 - 3200 along with other allowances and he was appointed on regular basis in Group D by order dated 17.3.2001 in the scale of pay of Rs.2,840/-, protecting the pay he was receiving at that time. When action was taken to revise the payment to Rs.2,550/- contending that he will get only the minimum of the pay scale when his services were regularised, he approached the Central Administrative Tribunal. Tribunal after analysing various cases held that the respondent had very long service and his protection of pay was correctly done at the W.P.(C).27137/2005 2 time when he was granted regular employment. When he was absorbed in Group D post as Peon there is nothing wrong in protecting the pay that he was drawing. We see no ground to interfere in the order of the Tribunal as there is no patent illegality and perverse findings so as to attract Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Hence this writ petition is dismissed.J.B.KOSHY, JUDGE
