THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA W.P. No. 9348 of 2007 Oral order: The petitioners claim that they are similarly place as that of the petitioners in W.P. No. 7798 of 2001, and therefore, they are entitled to the benefit of the orders dated 18.08.2004, passed by this Court therein, and prayed that this writ petition also be disposed of by and in terms thereof. However, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for School Education appearing on behalf of the respondents contended that the petitioners are claiming arrears for the periods between 01.09.1985 to 31.10.1987; 01.02.1988 to 31.10.1989 and 01.06.1986 to 31.10.1989, which claim, in fact, is nearly 20 years old. At this stage, the learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that he be permitted to withdraw the writ petition granting liberty to the petitioners to make representation to respondent No.1-Government for granting the benefit of the orders dated 18.08.2004 passed by this Court in W.P. No. 7798 of 2001, inasmuch as they are similarly situated as the petitioners therein. The petitioners are at liberty to make such a representation to respondent No.1-Government, and if any such representation is made, it is open to respondent No.1-Government, to consider and dispose of the same in accordance with law. Granting liberty to the petitioners as above, the writ petition is dismissed as withdrawn. No costs. ________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Dated: 11th December, 2008. KSR
