The State Administrative Tribunal has ordered that the salary of senior IAS officer, who is the secretary of the Orissa school and mass education department, be held back till a Sanskrit teacher gets his dues from the department.
SAT chairman Nityananda Prusty directed the government to stop the salary of Aaparajita Sarangi from this month till the teacher, Prafulla Chandra Mishra, got his dues from the department. Chief secretary B K Patnaik said the government would abide by the tribunal’s order.
SAT sources said Mishra had filed a case before the tribunal over payment of his dues under time-bound advancement scale of pay from 1988. In August 2009, SAT had asked the department to pay Mishra his dues within four weeks. When the dues were not given, Mishra filed a contempt of court case before SAT in August 2010.
