The respondents filed the said O.A. questioning the proceedings of the Deputy Director of Social Welfare, Karimnagar dated 08.06.2001 in canceling the earlier orders converting the respondents herein from part-time daily wage workers to full-time daily wage workers. The respondents herein were appointed as part-time daily wage workers on 07.03.1983, 13.06.1983 and 01.07.1983 respectively and they were converted into full-time daily wage workers by orders dated 01.10.1989 and 12.10.1989 respectively. The said orders converting the respondents from part-time daily wage workers to full-time daily wage workers were cancelled by the 2nd petitioner herein by order dated 08.06.2001 which was questioned before the Tribunal and the Tribunal allowed the said O.A. and set aside the orders of the 2nd petitioner herein and further directed the petitioners herein to verify by what date the respondents herein have completed five years of service and extend the consequential benefits to them as per the rules, from the next day on which they have completed five years of service and pass appropriate orders, within a period of three months. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that pursuant to the orders of the Tribunal, the petitioners herein are considering the cases of the respondents in accordance with Rules for payment of monthly remuneration i.e. minimum pay scale applicable to the last grade employees by taking into consideration of their five years service as part-time daily wage workers, by converting them from part- time daily wage workers into full-time contingent employees.
