Bairagi, Ex-Driver, R/o Bangaramma Colony, Salur, Vizianagaram District and others. .... PETITIONERS AND The APSRTC, rep. by its Managing Director, Musheerabad, Hyderabad and others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No.15183 of 2006 Order: Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents-Corporation. The petitioners, who were employed as Drivers in the respondents-Corporation, were retired on medical grounds. The case of the petitioners is that in spite of the Circular, dated 08.10.2003, issued by the Corporation, providing certain benefits to the Drivers, who are retired on medical grounds, the respondents are not extending the said benefits to them. The further case of the petitioners is that when similarly placed persons filed W.P. No.22863 of 2005, this Court, by order dated 07.12.2005, disposed of the same and directed the respondents to finalise the issue relating to the extension of benefit provided for under Circular, dated 08.10.2003, to the petitioners therein within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of that order. Relying on the same, the petitioners pray to consider their cases also. The learned Standing Counsel for the respondents-Corporation also conceded that similar writ petition was disposed of by this Court, with the directions as stated above. In the circumstances, following the judgment of this Court in W.P. No. 22863 of 2005, dated 07.12.2005, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: The respondents shall finalise the issue relating to the extension of benefit provided for under Circular, dated 08.10.2003, to the petitioners, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ___________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Date: 24.07.2006 Nsr/Ksr
