Justice T. Meena Kumari) This appeal is filed against the order, dated 30.9.2008 in WPMP No.28321 of 2008 in WP No.21696 of 2008, where under the learned Single Judge issued an interim direction to the appellants herein to consider the payment of minimum scale of pay applicable to the post of Sweeper to the respondent herein and pass appropriate orders, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of the order and communicate the same to the respondent herein. Heard the learned Counsel for the parties and perused the material available on record. The order under appeal is an outcome of an interim direction issued to the appellants. If that being the case, it is not known as to what has prevented the appellants from filing the vacate petition by filing a detailed counter instead of choosing the present appeal. Therefore, without exhausting such remedy, the approach of the appellants at this stage of the proceedings, itself is a premature one and as such, this appeal cannot be entertained. Accordingly, the writ appeal is dismissed. However, the appellants are at liberty to file a counter-affidavit or vacate petition before the learned Single Judge. ________________________ Justice T.
