IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 17664 of 2009. [O&M] Date of Decision: 28th July, 2010. Ram Parkash Bhardwaj & Ors. Petitioners through Mr. P.K.Gokalney, Advocate Versus State of Punjab & Ors. Respondents through Mr. H.S.Brar, Addl.AG, Punjab. CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURYA KANT. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? SURYA KANT, J. [ORAL] This order shall dispose of Civil Writ Petitions No. 17664 19106 of 2009 and 701 of 2010 as common issues are involved in these cases. For reference, the facts are taken from CWP No. 17664 of 2009. The petitioners are retired Masters/Mistresses/Head Masters of various Government Aided Privately Managed Schools. Their grievance is against the non-release of revised pensionary benefits in accordance with the Punjab Privately Managed Recognized Aided Schools Retirement Benefit Scheme, 1992 in terms of the said scheme, the petitioners are statedly entitled to revised pension, dearness allowance as also the revised pay scales which have come into force w.e.f. 1.1.2006. The petitioners also seek interest on the delayed payments. To be precise, the case of the petitioners is that though the pay scales have been revised retrospectively w.e.f. 1.1.2006, the petitioners are not being granted the consequential revised pay scales and other service/retiral benefits. In this regard, the petitioners have served the respondents with a legal notice dated 1.9.2009 [ Annexure P-12 ]. Since the major relief sought in these writ petitions is to be granted by the State of Punjab only under the grant-in-aid scheme, I deem it appropriate to dispose of these writ petitions with a direction to respondent No. 2 to consider the claim of the petitioners as contained in the legal notice [Annexure P-12] and pass appropriate orders under the Rules/policy within a period of three months from the date a certified copy of this order is received. Needless to say that if the petitioners are found entitled to the revised pay/pension etc., the same shall also be released to them within the afore-stated period. Disposed of. Dasti. July 28, 2010.
