THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE S.ANANDA REDDY Writ Petition No.17823 of 2005 12-08-2005 Between: 1.G.S.A.S.Swamydason and others. ... PETITONERS AND 1.The State of A.P., rep. By its Secretary to Government, Department of School Education, Secretariat, Saifabad, Hyderabad and others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE S.ANANDA REDDY Writ Petition No.17823 of 2005 ORDER: This writ petition is filed aggrieved by the inaction of the respondents, especially the fourth respondent, in not disposing of the representation of the petitioners as to the non-payment of salaries by the respondents 5 and 6. Though in fact the petitioners approached this Court for a direction to the respondents 5 and 6 for payment of salaries, since such a relief cannot be granted under Article 226 of the Constitution of India against the respondents 5 and 6, the learned counsel for the petitioners sought for a direction against the fourth respondent for disposal of the representation of the petitioners, pursuant to which, an enquiry was also conducted by the fourth respondent on 17.03.2005. The grievance of the petitioners is that no orders have been passed by the fourth respondent on their representation dated 29.01.2005 even after conducting the enquiry. Hence, a direction has been sought for. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for School Education appearing for the respondents. As the petitioners have already made representation as early as on 29.01.2005, with reference to non-payment of salaries to them by the respondents 5 and 6, it is appropriate for the fourth respondent to pass appropriate orders. In fact, as per the proceedings of the fourth respondent, dated 11.03.2005, both the petitioners and respondents 5 and 6 were also called for an enquiry. However, it is stated that no orders have been passed by the fourth respondent. Under the above circumstances, the fourth respondent is directed to pass appropriate orders on the representation of the petitioners dated 29.01.2005 expeditiously, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs. _______________ 12.08.2005 VGB
