Q. Query regarding arrears




Sir/ma'am,  At present  I am working in central government department.
before this I was working with lic of India as an officer and resigned from service. 
I joined lic in Feb 2014 and resigned in September 2015. 
Now on January 14, 2016 lic issue gazette notification regarding wage revision
 which were due from 1 August 2012. 
In notification they exclude all employees to paying arrears who were resigned from
 their services after August 1 , 2012 and before date of publishing notification 
as on January 14, 2016. 
So please guide us whether we should file a case against lic or not!

A.1) you were an employee during the period February 2014- September 2015 
 
2) if on account of wage revision arrears are payable to employees since 2012 
you should not be denied the benefit merely because you have resigned from
 service prior to date of publication of notification . 
 
3) the action of LIC is arbitrary , illegal and unsustainable in law . 
 
4) file writ petition in HC against LIC
