Bawa, Advocate present in the Court has been asked to accept notice on behalf of respondents. Keeping in view the nature of relief claimed and with the consent of learned counsel for the parties, this petition is being disposed of at the motion stage itself. The petitioner was appointed as S.S. Mistress on contract basis in the year 1978. She was thereafter appointed in the B.B.M.B on 18.8.1984 as S.S. Mistress on ad hoc basis. Petitioner made several representations for grant of benefit of temporary status, regular status and consequential benefits. She made a representation (Annexure P-6) in the year 1994. Thereafter, various correspondence took place between the authorities. The grievance of the petitioner is that her claim has not been finally decided till date, though, persons similarly situated have been granted the relief. CWP. No. 17828 of 2010 -2- Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner would be satisfied, if, competent authority is directed to consider the claim of the petitioner in view of the judgements (Annexures P-15 & P-16). He further submits that since the original representation was long time back, petitioner may be permitted to make a fresh supplementary representation. In view of the above, this petition is disposed of with the following directions:- 1. The petitioner shall be at liberty to make a supplementary representation within a period of four weeks. 2. The competent authority will consider the representation (Annexure P-6) along with the fresh supplementary representation to be made within the stipulated period, within a period of four months from the date certified copy of this order is served upon the said authority. Needless to say that in the event the claim of the petitioner is to be rejected, the same shall be by a reasoned and speaking order. (PERMOD KOHLI) JUDGE 1.10.2010. lucky
