IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.9902 of 2010 Date of Decision : May 26, 2010. Daljit Singh Dhaliwal and others .....Petitioners versus State of Punjab .....Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.R.K.Chopra, Senior Advocate, with Ms.Maninder, Advocate, for the petitioners. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The grievance of the petitioners is that though their pay scales have been revised w.e.f. 1.1.2006 under the Punjab Civil Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2009, but no decision with regard to the payment of consequential arrears till 31.7.2009 has been taken nor such arrears have been paid to them till now. In this regard, the petitioners are said to have represented the authorities on 17.8.2009 and 14.9.2009 (Annexures P-5 & P-6), but no decision on the same has been taken or communicated to them so far. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition, however, C.W.P.No .9902 of 2010 2 without expressing any views on their entitlement, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondent to take an appropriate decision in relation to the afore-mentioned claim of the petitioners, by passing a speaking order, preferably within a period of four months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. May 26, 2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
