Dear Octavious,
Of course, nobody can teach any person, unless he has the desire to understand the reality by shunning his wrong concept.
But, I wonder, what did you want to convey by pasting link about "jurisdiction of Supreme Court", while I never raised any doubt about the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. Not only that, the site does not refute in anyway my own conviction. That also does not confirm your views and even does not stress upon the judgments of the High Court to have wider application unless ordered to be made so. So, I am unable to understand, how the site has any connection with my last reply.
Still further, the link refers to Article 133 also, which I quoted in my last reply, as you avoided to quote while referring other articles. That itself confirms my conviction to be true.
Not only that, when I tried to make you aware of the repealed Articles, you have come forward with your after-thought that "the repealed post has been put there for you to search the reason, and process behind the repeal, so that you get the idea how things have evolved in judiciary over a period of time," which you never intended in your original post. By such types of statements, you cannot falsify the realities. CAN YOU JUST MAKE ME UNDERSTAND WHAT I, YOU, OR THE OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS WOULD DERIVE BENEFIT FROM SEARCH OF THE REASON AFTER 33 YEARS OF THE REPEAL OF THE ARTICLES 33? Had you known any reason behind their repeal, you were welcome to quote not only for my knowledge but also for the benefit of the members of the community in general. Naturally, the said articles did not contain anything which could prove that the High Court Judgments or the Supreme Court judgments should not be implemented.
To be very frank, had you wished to maintain decorum of the forum, you as a super moderator could well have made a proper research before declaring my statement as fallacies, rather than trying to declare my views as fallacies, on which , where I have already offered myself to face any court case from your side to prove me wrong.
You may also like to review your own earlier statement “discussion is an exchange of knowledge; an argument an exchange of ignorance.” I merely discussed on the Articles quoted by you, as your contentions were being side-tracked to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, not the applicability of the P&H High Court judgment on split up of wages for PF. About argument, what is your opinion about the advocates of both sides, making arguments to attract the attention of the judges, right from the lowest court to the Supreme Court and the argument of one side is accepted even by the Supreme Court. Do both the sides exchange their ignorance, while even the Supreme Court agrees on the ignorance as his knowledge and base its judgment on that? I BELIEVE, EVEN DISCUSSION SOMETIMES EXCHANGES MERE IGNORANCE, WHILE ARGUMENT MAKES THE OTHER FELLOWS UNDERSTAND HIS VIEW POINT LEADING TO ENHNACEMENT OF KNOWLEDGE.
About your allegation "that you tend to get personal in a professional debate, and start making personal remarks," it is nothing except your bias and misunderstanding about me. Contrarily, your own post conveys that sense of making personal remarks, while you stated in your yesterday's post, "You tend to commit fallacy when you say that a judgment in any particular case applies only to that particular case only, not to all other organizations, until that is ordered so by the competent court, or by way of amendment to the relevant law, or when the organizations decides to apply uniformly to all the organization."
I wish, by virtue of being super moderator and senior member, you could have shown your super knowledge, rather than any bias after properly interpreting the legal and constitutional requirements.
Anyway, thanks for your caution. BUT I know, I do not try to reply unless I understand the the implication of the relevant law. I also admit mistake wherever I am wrong.
However, if you feel some irritation on my replies in the CiteHR, I can avoid posting my replies in CiteHR. Of course, I have already reduced my activity at CiteHR due to the fact that some members don't relish my pointing out towards wrong information, where they expect me merely to endorse their opinions, irrespective of the fact how wrong that be.

Dear Kamal
Good decision, you have made. I suggest that we should not waste bandwidth and time on things of which out come would be negative.
As a matter of principle, its always better not to teach a person anything who is lost his/her learning curve.
Some people have that sense of seniority, and then they get confused that feeling of seniority with superiority , and then they start calling themselves superior to others. And believe me at this stage no person can convince these people with fake superiority complex that they are wrong and need to learn and understand the new and existing truth.
Being a Super moderator confirms more of responsibility and less of privilege, and hence have to ignore certain situation which can be easily confronted by me as a individual, but you have shown extraordinary resilience and maturity by avoiding unnecessary arguments and have proved superiority beyond realms of doubt
Sometimes, somethings are beneath contempt, and hence its always better to ignore such things.

Dear Octavious,
I am neither a senior member not a moderator (what to say of a super moderator). So, your contention as at 3rd para of your post has no relevance for me. I can only add, when some one fails in logic, he just starts uttering such like words or casting aspersion on the others, instead of bringing forth any fact contrary to the facts tried to be put before him and the audience.
Just make me aware, am I earning anything by sharing my knowledge free of cost and wasting my time to reply your views? I have already stated, if my views irk you or your position so much, you just advise me to stop writing at CiteHR. Mind it, CiteHR is not paying me anything. YOU CAN ALSO BAN MY CONTRIBUTION, AS A SUPER MODERATOR, IF YOU LIKE.
BUT, I can't help, if people like you,even being a super moderator, don't prefer rationality of views and advice.
I won't have any objection, if you and Mr. Kamal continue to offer any wrong advice to people or the managements of different organisations continue to adhere to such advice, as that won't cost me anything.
WITH BEST WISHES.

Dear Balaji,
Greetings for the day,
The assumption laid by by you and the copy of judgement forwarded by you, it must be noted that circular issued by EPFO not to split the minimum wage is in context of supreme court judgement, how can it should be overruled by a high court is really a matter of worry.

Dear All,
Regarding employers splitting up minimum wages to reduce PF liability, I personally feel that it is unethical irrespective of what the current law says. If the current law allows such a thing, then it is more of a loophole instead of original intention, I feel. In our organization (a private hospital) we don't have such practice.
However, looking at circular from EPFO, I am confused at one thing. Their main intention seems to be that PF contributions should be made at least on "Minimum Wage". Further they explain the concept of "Basic Wage" and say that it should not be less than the former.
So, are they saying that it is illegal/unethical even if "Basic + DA + other components eligible for PF" matches "Minimum Wage"?
Regards,
Krishna.

I would like to humbly ask my questions with experts here and voice my opinion. If my posts are in violation with spirit of the forum, I request you to guide me.
