AND artists Case No.: Civil Appeal No 125 of 1981 Date of Judgment:1983-05-10 Reported As: 1984 SCMR 183 Result: Petition dismissed Judgment ORDER ABDUL KADIR SHAIKH, J.-Leave to appeal was granted in order to consider whether after having designated the petitioner as Upper Division Clerks in 1972, the Department was justified in not giving them back and future benefits, and also whether the Service Tribunal was justified in dismissing petitioners' appeal as not maintainable because the impugned order was passed before the year 1969. ' After having gone through the record of the case we find that the appellants' grievance relates to the denial of the pay according to the pay scales revised under the rules framed in the year 1949. The Service Tribunal, therefore, rightly dismissed the appeal filed by the appellant as not maintainable for the reason that the decision in question was made before the year 1969 and also because the appeal even otherwise was time-barred. ' For these reasons the order granting leave to appeal is recalled and the petition is dismissed.
