JUDGMENT The petitioners are working as casual sweepers in different offices in Thirurangadi Taluk. According to them, the sweeping area serviced by them is in excess of 100 sq.m. Therefore, they are entitled to regularisation in service.

The petitioners are aggrieved that orders of regularisation of their services are yet to be passed. They have moved the Government under Ext.P10. 2. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 1td respondent to W.P.(C).NO.8093/08 :: 2 :: consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P10 representation, in the matter of regularisation of the services of the petitioners. The claim for arrears of wages, if any, due to the petitioners will be regulated by Ext.P5 judgment. Orders shall be passed within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioners shall produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the 1st respondent for compliance. Sd/- (V.GIRI) JUDGE sk/ //true copy// P.S. To Judge
