RESPONDENT'S EXHIBITS: NIL /TRUE COPY/ P.A.TO.JUDGE sts K.SURENDRA MOHAN, J --------------------------------------------- W.P.(c)No.34124 of 2011 --------------------------------------------- Dated this the 20th day of December 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioners are working as Doctors in various faculties at the Government Hospital, Manjeri. Petitioners 10 and 11 have been transferred to Taluk Head Quarters Hospital, Malappuram and petitioners 12 to 14 have retired from service. 2. The petitioners have filed this writ petition claiming that they are entitled to be paid call allowances in terms of Ext.P1 Government order and subsequent Government orders issued by the second and third respondents. Reliance is also placed on Ext.P16 guidelines. The contention of the petitioners is that such call allowances are in arrears from July 2008 onwards. Though they have been submitting periodic requests for disbursement of the said amounts, there has been no response to their representations, so far. The representations of the petitioners are produced as Exts.P2 WPC No.34124 of 2011 2 to Exts.P15 in the writ petition. The petitioners seek the issue of a direction to consider and pass orders on their representations. 3. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. 4. In view of the limited relief that is claimed, I am of opinion that this writ petition can be disposed of directing the consideration of Exts.P2 to P15. 5. This writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of directing the second respondent to consider the representations submitted by the petitioners, evidenced herein by Exts.P2 to P15, in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
