THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 23/03/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P(C) No. 9093 of 2011 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 23rd day of March, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioners were erstwhile employees of the Malabar Market Committee, which has subsequently been disbanded by the Government. But those employees were granted pension by the Government. The petitioners are also receiving pension. Their grievance in this writ petition is that they have not been given the benefits of subsequent revision in pension in 1998 and 2006. The petitioners therefore filed Exts.P6 to P9 representations seeking enhancement in pension as given to other pensioners in 1998 and 2006. According to the petitioners, by Ext. P13, the Collector had verified the claim of the petitioners. However, the petitioners now confine their prayer for a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider and pass orders on Exts.P6 to P9 expeditiously. Having heard the learned Government Pleader also, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider and pass orders on Exts.P6 to P9, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioners, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. While doing so, the 3rd respondent shall take into account Ext. P13 communication from the 4th respondent to the 3rd respondent. The petitioner shall forward a copy of this writ petition along with a certified copy of the judgment to the 3rd respondent for compliance. Sd/-S. Siri Jagan, Judge. Tds/ [TRUE COPY] P.S TO JUDGE.
