Corporation's Employees Service Regulation, 1989

Regulation 50- Payment of gratuity- Impugned Office Order can not supersede the statutory provision- The appellants and the employees of other Corporations are similarly circumstanced and there is no reason to discriminate them in the enjoyment of gratuity similar to those who have been enjoying as such. These appellants are doing similar work as those employees mentioned above and we find no reason to discriminate them with regard to the enjoyment of gratuity.

We agree with the opinion of the High Court Division that the impugned Office Order can not supersede the statutory provision, we allow the appeal on the point of discrimination. ... Obaidul Islam Chowdhury =VS= Bangladesh, [9 LM (AD) 39]
