Mrs.Kulwant Kaur Chawla @ Kulwant Chawla & others ....Petitioners versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Sandeep Chopra, 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 petitioners are retired lecturers fron Shahzada Nand College for Girls, Maqbool Road, Green Avenue, Amritsar. It is their case that they were appointed against the posts sanctioned under the Grant-in- Aid Scheme. They have retired w.e.f. 31.10.2000, 31.10.2001 and 31.3.2007 respectively on attaining the age of superannuation. The grievance of the petitioners is that though in terms of the UGC recommendations as approved and implemented by the State Government, their pay scales have been revised w.e.f. 1.1.1996 but the consequential arrears of pay, additional D.A., House Rent Allowance, Medical Allowance and C.P.F. etc. have not been paid to them. It is averred that the petitioners are entitled to the above-stated arrears in terms of two Division C.W.P.No .11329 of 2010 2 Bench decisions of this Court in CWP No.10097 of 2000 (Sadhu Singh and others versus State of Punjab and others), decided on 7.8.2002 and CWP No.17605 of 2004 (Gurparbash Singh Sandhu versus State of Punjab and others), decided on 17.5.2005 (Annexures P-2 & P-3). The petitioners are said to have made a representation for the aforesaid claim on 10.5.2010 (Annexure P-1) but without any response thereto. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the same with a direction to the respondents to consider the afore-mentioned claim of the petitioners in the light of the above cited decisions of this Court and release the necessary benefits to the petitioners, if they are found entitled to, within a period of four months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. July 01, 2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
