I am an Engineer working in port of cochin(Govt establishment) .I am employed on contract basis .My employment contract terms and conditions says my salary will be same as regular(permanent) engineers &
if there is any increment in salary of regular(permanent) engineers the same increment will be given to me.When new pay commision was implemented there was a hike in the salary of pemanent engineers,but me being a contract engineer was not given the hike .After a lot of writing to the management they hiked my salary to the same level as pemanent engineers but it took almost 6.5 months but without any arrears.So I have asked 9wrote a letter)for arrears which they have not given me.Why didnt they give me arrears?Are they not supposed to pay it as per my terms and conditions?What should I do if they dont pay me my arrears?

You are entitled for pay raise on par with the regular employees as per the terms and conditions of the contract. You can submit your representation to the competent authority requesting him to implement the terms and conditions of the contract. You are entitled to claim arrears also.
