THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION NO.20341 OF 2009 Dated 23rd September, 2009 Between: Ch.Sri Hari …Petitioner And APSRTC rep. By its Managing Director And another …Respondents The Court made the following O R D E R: Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. In this writ petition, the petitioner seeks directions by way of Mandamus to declare the inaction of the respondents in rectifying the pay anomaly and fixing his pay on par with his junior colleague by name G.S.S.V.Prasad as illegal and arbitrary and sought for a consequential direction to the respondents to rectify the pay anomaly and fix his pay. It is stated in the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition that the petitioner filed a representation before respondent No.2-the Regional Manager, APSRTC, Medak Region, Sangareddy, on 29.06.2009, seeking pay fixation and a copy of the said representation is also filed in the material papers. I have perused the same. In the said representation, the petitioner alleges that his junior colleague by name G.S.S.V.Prasad is drawing more pay than him and pleading that pay anomaly occurred in fixation of his pay, sought for re-fixation. Even according to the petitioner, no orders are passed on the said representation. Whether there is anomaly in pay fixation of the petitioner, as pleaded by him, or not is a matter, which is yet to be examined by respondent No.2. Therefore, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing respondent No.2 to consider the representation dated 29.06.2009, submitted by the petitioner for pay fixation, as per the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation Employees (Pay & Allowances) Regulations, 1964, and dispose of the same, as expeditiously as possible, preferably, within a period of two (2) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. It is made clear that the representation shall be considered on merits, by examining the plea of the petitioner as stated in the representation. Subject to the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ____________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J Dated 23rd September, 2009 vrn
