The Delhi High Court on Wednesday asked the Centre to justify different pay scale of 'Agniveers' and regular sepoys in the Indian Army if their job profile is same.
As the counsel for the central government responded that 'Agniveer' is a different cadre from the regular cadre of armed forces, the high court said, "different cadre does not answer job profile, the question is work and responsibility."
"If the job profile is same, then how you justify different pay? A lot will depend on the job profile. Get instructions on this and put it on an affidavit," a bench of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Subramonium Prasad told Additional Solicitor General Aishwarya Bhati who was representing the Centre.
The law officer responded that as 'Agniveer' cadre is separate from the regular cadre, their terms and conditions and responsibilities are also different from sepoys (soldiers).
She said the responsibility can't be the same and even work of Agniveers and general cadre is not same.
