Bhagwant Singh .....Petitioner versus The Punjab State Power Corporation Limited and others ....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.R.K.Arora, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 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) The petitioner seeks a mandamus for the removal of alleged anomaly in his pay scale. It is averred that while the petitioner's pay has been fixed at Rs.5900/- w.e.f. 1.7.2005, his junior, namely, respondent No.6's pay has been fixed at Rs.6500/- on the same date. On this premise, it is claimed that the petitioner is entitled for step-up of his pay at par with his junior. The above stated claim has been raised by the petitioner vide representations dated nil (Annexure P-3) and dated 15.12.2010 (Annexure P-5) also. It may be noticed here that the first representation of the petitioner was favourably recommended by the Senior Executive Officer, Jagraon Division of the Corporation vide memo dated 15.5.2007 C.W.P.No .3916 of 2011 2 (Annexure P-4) but the petitioner's grievance is yet to be redressed by the competent authority. In these circumstances, however, without expressing any views on the merits of the petitioner's case, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to respondent Nos.2 to 4 to consider and dispose of the aforementioned claim of the petitioner by passing a speaking order, within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. March 04, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
