IN THE HIGH COURT OF BOMBAY AT GOA WRIT PETITION NO. 120 OF 2001 SRINIVAS DINKARRAO GOKAKAKAR ... Petitioner Versus STATE OF GOA & ORS. ... Respondents Mr. N. Vaze, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. S. S. Kantak, Advocate General with Ms. L. Dharwadkar, Addl. Govt. Advocates for respondents No 1. and 2. Mrs. A. A. Agni, Advocate for the respondent No.3 Coram:- R.M.S. KHANDEPARKAR & R. S. MOHITE, JJ. Date:- 30th October, 2007 P.C. The learned Advocate appearing for the petitioner states that initially at the time when the petition was filed, the petitioner had insisted for senior scale to be awarded to the petitioner with effect from 20.6.93, on the ground that the said date was fixed by the Scrutiny Committee of the Goa University, to be the date from which the senior scale is to be given. In the facts and circumstances, the petitioner no more insists for the senior scale from 20.6.1993 and accepts the contention of the Goa University that the petitioner would be entitled for senior scale with effect from 20.1.94. In this regard, it is to be noted that the State Government had not accepted the contention of the Goa University in this regard and had contended that the senior scale was required to be given from 20.6.95. However, the said contention was already rejected by this Court in the decision delivered on 21.12.2005 in Writ Petitions No.121/2001 and 108/2001. 2. As the petitioner has restricted his claim to the date acceptable to the Goa University and the said stand of the Goa University having been confirmed by this Court in Writ Petitions No. 121/01 and 108/01, nothing further survives in the petition. Suffice to observe that petitioner would be entitled to senior scale from 20.1.94 onwards. With these observations, the petition is disposed of. R.M.S. KHANDEPARKAR, J. R. S. MOHITE, J. ssm.
