ORDER
This Original Application has been filed by the applicant with a grievance of non-payment of training allowance during his tenure as Commandant at Artillery Centre, Nasik as well as Instructor, Army War College, Mhow alongwith interest. Same has been rejected by the PCDA (O), Golibar Maidan, Pune by citing reason that only certain number of Instructor Posts have been authorised for Artillery Centre as well as Army War College and Commandant Artillery Centre is not one of them.
Learned counsel for the applicant has placed before us a copy of Government of India, Ministry of Defence (DMA) letter that mentions a Government letter dated 31.03.2023 sanctioning additional appointments in different training establishments as listed under Appendices ‘A’ and ‘B’ of Government of India, MoD letter dated 28.11.2019. However, the letter is silent on whether Commandant Artillery Centre is one of those additional appointments and also whether the number of Instructors in Army War College has been increased.
Accordingly, we direct learned counsel for the applicant to place on record a copy of Govt. of India, Ministry of Defence letter no. PC 1(16)/2017/D (Pay/Services) PL II dated 28.11.2019 alongwith its Appendices, thereafter, the OA will be taken up.
Adjourned to 10.12.2026.
