The two petitioners are employees of the Patna Municipal Corporation. They have come to this Court with a grievance that they have not yet been given the benefit of the 6th Pay Revision, which was not given with effect from 01.01.1996. It is almost 13 years they have continuously being deprived of the same. What is disturbing is, it has been pointed out that there are several other who have been granted this benefit. Learned counsel for the Patna Municipal Corporation points out that this benefit is being extended first to retired employees and then those employees who have approached this Court and obtained orders. This is what, is disturbing. It only generates litigations and wastes time unnecessarily of this Court. These are matters of constitutional right. They cannot be made dependent on orders to be passed by this Court. They have to be given without being asked. In - 2 - some previous cases, I had issued a continuing mandamus, namely, in C.W.J.C. No.10275 of 2009 order dated 21.08.2009. In view of the continuing mandamus already issued by this Court, in case any further application comes to this Court for the same purpose, would automatically visits respondents with contempt proceedings. These two writ applications are disposed of with a direction to respondents to pay the said amount within two months to the petitioners and in case they fail to pay the entire amount within two months, the same shall be paid with an interest @ 6% per annum from the time it was due till the time it was paid. Apart from this, respondents will be liable to be proceeded for contempt. Trivedi/ (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)
