Equal Pay Claims Under Indian Law

The document argues that instructors performing similar work at a school should be paid equally regardless of sex under Section 4 of India's Equal Remuneration Act of 1976. It states that the school violated this law by paying male and female instructors differently even though their work was of a similar nature, with no material difference other than sex. It further argues that the right to equal pay is protected under India's constitution, and that paying instructors differently based solely on their sex does not constitute reasonable classification allowed under Article 14 of the constitution.
