He was placed in a minimum of the regular pay scale being 1875-3750 in the year 1994. Through his order, dated 28-01-2001, the Executive Officer of the temple regularized the services of the petitioner on completion of five years of service and placed him in the scale of 2550-4550. The petitioner states that the scale of pay attached to the post of Fitter was not extended to him and that the scale of pay, which was extended to him is that the post of Attender. He claims to have made several representations, with the request to extend the benefit of the scale of pay, which is applicable to the post of Fitter, and complains that no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, the learned Government Pleader for Endowments and the learned Standing Counsel for the temple. The petitioner has gone through several phases in the matter of his appointment. Initially, he was appointed on a consolidated pay and thereafter, he was placed in the minimum of the scale of pay of 1875. At a later stage, his services were regularized as Fitter in the scale of 2550-4550. The petitioner made several representations stating that the scale of pay of 1875 for the post of Fitter has since been revised in the year 1999 to be at 3550-7150. The question as to whether there exists an independent post of Fitter in the scale of pay of 3550-7150 or whether the petitioner is regularized against an existing vacancy of Attender, needs to be considered by the Executive Officer of the temple. This Court cannot record any finding at this stage. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to make a fresh representation enclosing a copy of this order. On receiving the same, the Executive Officer shall pass appropriate orders, within a period of three months thereof. There shall be no order as to costs.
