PM Grade Petitioners will do the needful to re-present the case again at Supreme court if not allowed them in the upcoming PSS Group B exams!!!

Dear Postmasters,

           Because of the learned counsel's defects, supreme court case was dismissed against the plea of Postmaster Grade officials to allow them in PSS Group B exams.

            How ever petitioners will represent the case again, with another counsel soon.

Case history:

Hon'ble Madras CAT had given the verdicts favorable to the Postmaster Grade Officials to allow them to appear in PSS Group B during 2012

Hon'ble Madras High Court had given the verdicts favorable to the Department in the appeal suit during 2014.

The Case was again appealed to the Supreme court during the period of 2015, and that was not properly put forth to the supreme court by the learned counsel.

Supreme court order copy is furnished below:

Cabinet moves in to tax post demonetisation deposits.

The Union Cabinet on Thursday night is believed to have discussed amending laws to levy close to 60 per cent income tax on unaccounted deposits in banks above a threshold post demonetisation of high-denomination currency notes.

The move comes amid banks reporting over Rs. 21,000 crore being deposited in zero-balance Jan Dhan accounts in two weeks after the Rs. 500 and Rs. 1,000 notes were banned, which authorities apprehend may be the laundered black money.

There was no official briefing on what transpired in the meeting that was called at short notice as Parliament is in session. Traditionally, there could no disclosures outside on any policy decision taken during the sitting of Parliament.
