Pradeep Nandrajog, J.—Head Constables/Radio Operators in BSF make a grievance that they have been discriminated against and pray they be placed in the same grade of pay as Radio Operators in Delhi Police.

2.

This very issue was debated in LPA No. 563/2002, Union of India and Anr. v. G.K.K. Pillai and Ors. which was decided by a Division Bench of this Court. The judgment is reported as Union of India (UOI) and Another Vs. Shri G.K.K. Pillai and Others, . In the said matter, ASI/Radio Operators with BSF were claiming parity with ASI/Wireless Radio Technicians in Delhi Police.

3.

Single Judge has decided against the department. Division Bench overruled the said view and held that the source of recruitment as also nature of duties being qualitatively and quantitatively different, claim for parity could not be sustained.

4.

Writ Petitioners in the instant writ petition are Head Constable/Radio Operators in BSF.

5.

For the reasoning of the Division Bench in G.K.K. Pillai case (supra), we dismiss the instant writ petition adopting the same reasoning but refrain from imposing any costs.
