Jabalpur High Court has ordered the State government to pay full salaries to 11 probationer forest guards in accordance with its October 31, 2025 order. The guards had challenged a condition in their appointment orders that offered them 70%, 80%, and 90% of minimum pay during their first three years of service. The government argued that such orders were currently under review by the Supreme Court.
However, the court found that no stay had been granted by the Supreme Court and directed the authorities to extend the full pay benefit to the petitioners. The forest guards will be required to provide an undertaking to repay the full amount or furnish an indemnity bond if the State wins the same issue in the Supreme Court.
