(Oral) On November 02, 2007, while disposing of the writ petition filed on behalf of the petitioner, the Court ordered that the respondent shall take a final decision on the representation dated 29.9.2007 earlier submitted by the petitioner, whereby he had claimed the refixation of his pay under the policy instructions dated May 30, 2003, by passing a well reasoned speaking order within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of the order and in case, the petitioner was found entitled to any monetary benefits, the same be calculated and released to him within a further period of one month. Learned State counsel has produced copy of the order dated 5.2.2009 passed by the respondent whereby the representation dated C.O.C.P. No. 1885 of 2008 -2- 29.9.2007 has been duly considered and disposed of. Learned State counsel also states that a copy of the said order has already been conveyed to the petitioner. A perusal of the aforementioned order would reveal that the petitioner has been granted one more increment w.e.f. 2.1.1978 in the pay scale of Rs. 220-500 with the next date of increment as on 1.1.1979 and so on. This benefit awarded to the petitioner is, however, subject to the condition that the petitioner will have to submit to the concerned Drawing and Disbursing Officer the particulars of the Junior Master of his cadre whose pay has been fixed at the same stage on and from 1.1.1978 in the revised pay scales. It has also been mentioned therein that the petitioner has been allowed to change his option w.e.f. 1.1.1988, subject to the condition that he would submit an option on a prescribed proforma to the concerned Drawing and Disbursing Officer and deposit the recovery of over payment upto 31.12.1987 already claimed in the revised pay scale according to the previous option. In view of the fact that the representation dated 29.9.2007 has been considered and disposed of by the respondent by passing a speaking order on 5.2.2009, the present petition has been rendered infructuous and, accordingly, disposed of. Rule is discharged. ( T.P.S. MANN ) February 24, 2009 JUDGE satish
