On rejection of their claim, the Central Government Employees posted in the State of Mizoram approached the Central Administrative Tribunal, Guwahati under O.A.No.381/2000. The Hon’ble CAT, in Para -5 of its order dated 12.04.2002 pronounced as under:-

“In view of the position enumerated above,I am of the-view that the applicants are entitled to House Rent Allowance at the rate prescribed for B class cities to the Central Government Employees which should be payable to the applicants at the rate of 15% from 1.1.1986 to 30.9.1986 and from 1.10.86 to 30.9.1986 and from 1.10.86 to 30.9.86 and from 1.10.1986 at flat rate prescribed under O.M.dated 7.8.1987 read with another O.M.dated 13.11.1987 and the Notification GSR No.623 (E) amending the Fundamental Rule 45 A with effect from 1.7.1987.

As regards the claim for compensation in lieu of Rent Free Accommodation the respondents are to act in conformity with the Office Memorandum No.12-11/60-ACC-I dated 2.8.1960,O.M.dated 23.2.1986 and 22.5.1987 and also to O.M.dated 13.11.1987. The respondents shall examine the each case on merits and thereafter shall pass necessary order in individual cases.

2. The Department filed WP No.2955/2003 in the Hon’ble High Court of Guwahati against the orders of the CAT dated 12.04.2002. The Hon’ble High court in its judgment dated 25.4.2003, “disposed of the appeal with the observations that the directions given by the Learned Tribunal in the last part of the judgment quoted above shall be complied with by the Central Government after taking due consideration of the observations recorded within a period of 6 Months.

The Hon’ble High court, however, observed that the employees posted in Aizawl Headquarters of the State of Mizoram being a “C”Class city may not be entitled to HRA as prescribed for “B” class cities.”

3. Aggrieved by the order of the Hon’ble High Court of Guwahati, the Central Government Employees filed a civil appeal No.646/2005 in the Supreme Court of India. The Supreme court stayed the operation of the judgment order dated 25.04.2003 of the high court of Guwahati in WP No.2955/2003. The Honble supreme Court of India has dismissed the civil appeal and passed the orders dated 17.07.2013 as under:-

“We have thoughtfully considered the submissions of the learned counsel. In our view, the direction given by the Tribunal, which has been confirmed by the High Court, merely ordains consideration of the cases of each employee for grant of City compensatory Allowance in accordance with O.M. dated 02.08.1960, O.M. dated 23.02.1986 and 2.5.1987 as also O.M.dated 13.11.1987 and nothing more. Therefore, the impugned order as also the one passed by the Tribunal do not call for interference by this court under Article 136 of the Constitution.

With the above observation, the appeal is dismissed.

However, it is made clear that if the Government of India has issued fresh instructions after 13.11.1987 then the cases of the respondents shall be considered in accordance with the latest instructions.”

4. Consequent upon obtaining the concurrence of Integrated Finance Wing of this Department, the, matter was referred to Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure for decision.

5. Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure has considered the matter and accorded their approval in view of the decision taken by the Department of Posts to not to file any Review petition in the matter and as the Ministry of Law & Justice has advised Department of Posts to take administrative decision for implementation of the said order of Hon’ble Tribunal, implementation of the Order dated 12.04.2002 passed by the Hon’ble CAT, Guwahati Bench in O.A.No.381/2000 for grant of House Rent Allowance at “B/Y” class cities rates, as admissible from time to time, is agreed to.

6. Since, the Department of Posts had represented the Union of India on behalf of all the respondents Ministries/Departments/Offices, the approval accorded by the Department of Expenditure, Ministry of Finance is therefore conveyed to all the Respondent Ministries/Departments/Offices for issuing appropriate instructions for compliance of orders dated 12.04.2002 of Hon’ble CAT, Guwahati Bench in respect of the employees working under their administrative control who were/are applicants in the said OA No.381/2000.
