Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioners who are retired PTI Teachers from the Education Department, Government of Punjab, seek pay scales equivalent to that of Hindi/Punjabi Teachers (Language Teachers) on the basis of a judgment of this Court dated 7.5.2009 passed in a bunch of writ petitions including CWP No.16380 of 1989 (Balbir Singh and others versus State of Punjab and others) (Annexure P-5). The petitioners have approached this Court without first approaching the respondent-authorities. In these circumstances, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to treat this writ petition as a representation on behalf of the petitioners and dispose of their claim in CWP No.14401 of 2011 [2] view of the decisions of this Court in Balbir Singh and others' case (supra) and in case they are found entitled to the monetary benefits, the same be released within a period of six months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. The petitioners are directed to deposit two copies of the writ petition with the Registry to be sent to the respondents alongwith the certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti.
