It is also stated that their services were regularized and they were admitted to grant-in-aid w.e.f. 24.4.1994 vide proceedings dated 17.12.1997. Thus, they claim that they are entitled to revised pay scale from the date of regularization i.e., 24.4.1994. The 4th respondent college vide letter dated 6.8.2004 addressed to the Director of Collegiate Education, requested to release an additional grant for payment of arrears of salary, however, no action was taken. Thereafter, the petitioners made a representation dated 30.5.2006, but the same also remained unanswered. Hence, the present writ petition. Heard learned counsel for petitioner and learned Government Pleader for Education. Both counsel agreed for disposal of the writ petition with a direction to the respondents to dispose of the pending representation of the petitioners dated 30.5.2006. Since the representation of the petitioners dated 30.5.2006 is pending consideration before the authorities and in view of the agreed stand taken by both the counsel, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the respondents 1 and 2 to consider the representation of the petitioners dated 30.5.2006 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, expeditiously, preferably within a period of two months from the date of receipt of copy of this order.
