Hi,

The No. of the petition filed by Kerala NGO Sangh against the state of Kerala in connection with the salary challenge implemented by the State government is OP(KAT).No. 349 of 2018

The Case No. is O.A (EKM) No.1780 of 2018

The citation for the case is - Kerala N.G.O. Sangh v. State of Kerala, 2018 SCC OnLine Ker 13185

Here is a brief on the case that might help you -

NGO Sangh approached the Kerala High Court challenging the alleged compulsion of state government employees to contribute one month’s salary for flood relief to the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund (CMDRF).

This Petition was filed by the organization’s president P Sunil Kumar and Jayakumar SK and they also demanded that the order given by the government must be quashed.

A two-judge bench of the Kerala HC in September noted that the government order prima facie appeared to be compelling the employees to give up a month’s salary, thus amounting to forced donation

The Supreme Court refused to stay a High Court order that barred the state government from collecting non-consent letters from government employees who did not wish to participate in the 'salary challenge’

I hope this resolves your query.

Regards,

Archit.
