During the course of hearing, learned counsel for the parties ad-idem that the controversy involved in this case can be disposed of in terms of the order dated 2.3.2010 passed by this Court in CWP No.16323 of 2008 (Smt.Sudarshana Devi and another versus State of Punjab and others).

Needless to say that if the Committee recommends in favour of the petitioners, the Competent Authority shall implement the same forthwith unless it disagrees for the reasons to be assigned in writing.
