ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) NO.6207 OF 2008 (L) -------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 3rd day of March, 2010 J U D G M E N T The direction sought in this writ petition is to require the respondents to grant junior senior fixation to the petitioner vis-a- vis Sri. P.G. Parameswaran Nair and disburse the benefits of pay fixation with 12% interest from 1.3.1987 till the date of payment. A further direction to revise terminal benefits including DCRG and pension on the basis of junior senior fixation is also sought for. 2. It is now brought to my notice that during the pendency of this writ petition, the Board has issued order No.EB8/WP 6207/08 dated 28.7.2009 granting junior senior fixation as sought for by the petitioner and on that basis terminal benefits also have been revised. Therefore with the order dated 28.7.2009, substantial grievance in the writ the petition stands redressed. 3. Now what survives is the grievance of the petitioner that in the process of extending the aforesaid benefits, the 3rd higher grade promotion sanctioned to the petitioner with effect from 1.8.2005 has been cancelled. If the petitioner has such a grievance, WPC.No.6207 /08 :2 : it is for him to agitate the same separately. Therefore reserving the liberty to the petitioner to agitate his grievance regarding the cancellation of 3rd higher grade promotion, this writ petition is closed (ANTONY DOMINIC) JUDGE vi/
