They were ventilating their grievances to provide avenues for promotion, pay revision etc. Pursuant to the directions issued in the judgment in W.P.(C) No.21932 of 2007 the Government has passed an order in regard to various matters highlighted by them. Ext.P4 is the said order. By Ext.P4, a comprehensive order has been passed by the Government and various directions have been issued in the matter by directing the third respondent to formulate necessary proposals for implementing the directions. Ext.P4 is dated 30.6.2008. Since no further action is being taken in the matter by the third respondent the petitioners have approached him again seeking for appropriate reliefs by way of implementation of Ext.P4. The petitioners seek for appropriate directions to be issued to the third respondent to comply with the directions issued as per Ext.P4. wpc:5055 of 2009 2 2. In the light of the directions issued by this Court earlier, the Government have already passed an order on Ext.P4 way back on 30.6.2008. Since the complaint raised herein is that the actions for implementation of Ext.P4 has not been taken so far, there will be a direction to the third respondent to consider Ext.P5 and take appropriate action to see that the directions issued by the Government in Ext.P4 are complied with as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
