RADHAKRISHNAN, J. -------------------------------------------- R.P. NO. 870 OF 2005 IN W.P.C. NO. 17549 OF 2004 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 4th day of October, 2007 O R D E R Heard the learned counsel for the review petitioner, and the learned counsel for the fourth respondent. 2. This Review Petition is filed on the assumption that some of the questions raised in the Writ Petition are concluded against the interests of the petitioner. It is not so. The question of deferring the DA or granting exemption from paying DA is a matter that is pending before the Joint Registrar. It was therefore that writ petition was disposed of directing the Joint Registrar to conclude on the question of granting exemption from paying the DA as sought for by the employer- Bank. This means that on such a question being decided by the Joint Registrar, the fourth respondent-employer is bound to consider all other matters, including grant of any pay revision as sought for. With this clarification, this review petition is disposed of. (THOTTATHIL B. RADHAKRISHNAN) Judge 2 kk
