Average emoluments during erroneous reversion

(1) Average emoluments during erroneous reversion. - Some cases have come to notice of the Government in which owing to administrative errors, persons not due for reversion were reverted and repromoted after lapse of some period resulting in decrease in their pensions due to non-inclusion of the emoluments which they would have received but for their reversion for the purpose of calculation, vide Rule 3 under Article 487 of the CSRs [Rule 34 of CCS(P) Rules, 1972]. It is considered that in such cases it would not be fair to put the persons concerned to a recurring loss in the form of reduced pension. It has, therefore, been decided that in cases of wrongful reversion, where on repromotion the pay of the individual is fixed in accordance with the provisions of sub-paragraph 2 (1) (a) of G.I., M.H.A., O.M. No. 9/49/54, R.P.S., dated the 24th April, 1958, for purpose of the pension, the pay the individual would have drawn but for his reversion should be taken into account. [G.I., M.H.A., O.M. No. 50/6/59-Estt. (A), dated the 5th December, 1959.]
