It is not in dispute that a similar matter involving same issue has been decided by us sitting in Division Bench vide order dated 6-9-2011 passed in C.W.J.C. No. 6228/2011. In the present case also the learned Tribunal has accepted the claim of the applicant/respondent herein and has granted the benefit of full service for the period spent in temporary status and half service for the period prior to temporary status as a Casual Labour. The benefit granted for the purpose of pensionary benefit is on the basis of judgment of this court which followed a decision of Andhra Pradesh High Court and against which the Railway Board had preferred S.L.P. but lost. 2 In C.W.J.C. No. 6228 of 2011 also attention of this Court was drawn towards pendency of Special Leave Petitions before the Apex Court preferred by the Railways in similar matters. However, this Court decided that there was no good reason to interfere with the order of the Tribunal which was in accordance with the judgment of this Court and of Andhra Pradesh High Court. Hence, this writ petition is also dismissed for the same very reasons as mentioned in order dated 6-9-2011 passed in C.W.J.C. No. 6228 of 2011. Naresh ( Shiva Kirti Singh, J.) ( Shivaji Pandey,J) 3
