The petitioner is a Mission Co-ordinator, Kudumbasree at Alappuzha on deputation. He was working as a Plan Publicity Officer in the State Planning Board. According to the petitioner, there is an anomaly in the pay of Plan Publicity Officer, the rectification of which was sought for. By Ext.P1 his claim was forwarded to the Member Secretary of the Planning Board for taking up the same with the next pay revision commission. Since there has not been any progress, he made another representation by Ext.P2. Still, there was no progress and therefore, this writ petition has been filed. Admittedly, if the claim of the petitioner is to be accepted, the scale of pay that is allowed to Plan Publicity Officer will have to be modified. This can be done only by the Pay Revision Commission. Therefore, as directed in Ext.P1, the 3rd respondent will place the claim of the petitioner before the next Pay Revision Commission. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
