Mumbai: The Maharashtra State Judicial Employees Federation commenced its second phase of protests on Friday, demanding that subordinate court staff receive pay scales equivalent to those of High Court employees. Throughout the protest, judicial employees wore black ribbons and continued their regular work. The agitation will escalate on Saturday, with retired judicial employees planning a one-day sit-in protest outside District Collectors’ Offices throughout the state.
Since September 16, the federation has been advocating for the state government’s approval of a proposed pay scale revision, which has been under consideration by the Chief Minister’s Office since January 31, 2025, without final approval. The federation has urged the government to expedite its decision on the long-standing proposal and has called on serving and retired judicial employees across Maharashtra to participate actively in the second phase of the protest.
