Supreme Court<\/strong>: In a huge relief to Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF), the bench of RF Nariman and MR Shah, JJ<\/em> has upheld the Delhi High Court verdict which had directed the Central Government to grant Non-Functional Financial Upgradation (NFFU) to CAPFs who are a part of\u00a0Organized\u00a0Group\u00a0\u201cA\u201d\u00a0Services.<\/p>\n

On the object behind granting NFFU<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In order to overcome the stagnation problems, the 6th Pay Commission recommended NFFU to all Group \u201cA\u201d Officers in various Organized Group \u201cA\u201d Services. The purpose of granting NFFU was to give relief to Group \u201cA\u201d Officers facing the problem of stagnation as fall\u00adback option when regular promotions do not come into various factors.<\/p>\n

On non-compliance of two attributes out of six attributes listed in the Monograph of 1993<\/strong><\/h4>\n

According to the Monograph itself, there may be certain \u201cminor deviations\u201d from the attributes listed therein and also to the extent wherein it states that even if the listed criteria are fulfilled, the same would not automatically\u00a0\u00a0 confer the status of an Organized Group \u201cA\u201d Service. Thus, fulfilling\/compliance of the attributes shall not be given too much weightage while deciding on the status of CAPFs.<\/p>\n

On the Appropriate authority to define \u201cOrganised services\u201d<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Central Pay Commission, as such, is not authorised to define \u201cOrganized Services\u201d or to grant such status to any service but only relies on the information submitted to it by the various Departments. It appears from the material on record that right from 1986 onwards, in various Monographs CAPFs were included in the list of Group \u201cA\u201d Central Civil Services.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Court, however, noticed that the Government took \u2018U\u2019 turn and a stand was taken that CAPFs are not Organized Group \u201cA\u201d Central Services<\/em> and, therefore, on the basis of such a stand, the 6th Pay Commission did not recommend NFFU to CAPFs. It was, hence, held tha:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cmerely because the 6th Pay Commission did not recommend to grant NFFU to CAPFs \u2013 Group \u201cA\u201d Officers in PB\u00adIII and PB\u00adIV, the Group \u201cA\u201d Officers in PB\u00adIII and PB\u00adIV cannot be denied the NFFU, which otherwise is granted to all the Officers of Group \u201cA\u201d Central Civil Services.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
