JUDGMENT The petitioners 1 and 2 are working as U.P.S.As and the third petitioner as L.P.S.A.. in Sree Narayana Memorial Vocational Higher Secondary School, Vannappuram, managed by the fifth respondent. It is seen from the averments in the writ petition that now the District Educational Officer is the Manager of the school, as evident from Ext.P4. 2. The main relief prayed for in this writ petition is for a direction to the respondents to grant the petitioners the benefits of Teachers Package. It is stated that even though in Ext.P3 list initially the names of the petitioners were included, when it was finalised, their names are seen excluded. It is also averred that some of the juniors to the petitioners found a place in the list also. It is in these circumstances the petitioners approached the Government by filing Exts.P5, P5(a) and P5(b) appeals. Learned counsel for the petitioners prayed that the Government may be directed to consider the above appeals within a time frame. 3. Heard learned Government Pleader who submitted that Ext.P5 series appeals were filed only on 9.12.2011. WPC.33708/2011 2 4. There will be a direction to the Government to consider the request made by the petitioners in Ext.P5 series appeals and take an appropriate decision within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, since it is pointed out that juniors to the petitioners were granted approval and they are getting salary. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. The petitioners will produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the Government for compliance. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
