JUDGMENT : Mansoor Ahmad Mir, J. 1. The challenge in this Letters Patent Appeal is to the judgment and order dated 27.10.2010, passed by the learned Single Judge of this Court in CWP (T) No.5138 of 2008, titled Jeet Ram Panwar and others vs. Himachal Pradesh State Electricity Board, whereby impugned letter dated 11.1.2000 was quashed and the appellant-Board was directed to remove the anomaly by giving the benefit of stepping up of pay to the petitioners from due date alongwith interest @ 7% per annum, for short ?the impugned judgment.? 2. We have gone through the impugned judgment and are of the considered view that the Writ Court has rightly made the impugned judgment. 3. The learned counsel for the appellant was asked to carve out a case for interference by this Court but he failed to do so. 4. The Writ court has specifically made the mention of the case of the writ petitioners in paras 1 and 2 of the impugned judgment and also rightly discussed the ratio of the judgment of the apex Court in Er. Gurcharan Singh Grewal and another vs. Punjab State Electricity Board and others, 2009 (1) Scale 535 . 5. In view of the above stated position, no case for interference is made out. The appeal merits dismissal and is accordingly dismissed alongwith pending applications, if any.
