TO JUDGE tss THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, J. ------------------------------------------- O.P.No.3888 OF 2000 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 9th day of July, 2007 JUDGMENT Petitioner worked for a period of 8 years or more before joining an aided college in Kerala. By Ext.P15, the Government decided to count the past services for the purpose of various benefits, excluding to grant any arrear, thereby meaning arrears of monetary benefits. It is not in dispute that the petitioner did not serve the institutions for which monetary liability can be passed on to the State of Kerala before he joined its service. The impugned Ext.P15 virtually extends to the persons like petitioner all benefits accruing on account of placing in the UGC scale except the benefit of emoluments for work not done. Under such circumstances, challenge to Ext.P15 fails. In the result, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs. Sd/- THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, Judge kkb. ======================= THOTTATHIL B.
