While in service, for a period of 19 months, he was on special appointment on full time basic under X Plan Teacher Fellowship under Faculty Improvement Programme sponsored by the 2nd respondent. Necessary proceedings are said to have been issued by the 1st respondent on 08.09.2005 and the 2nd respondent on 26.11.2007. The grievance of the petitioner is that though he was entitled to be paid remuneration at the rate of Rs.11,000/- per month, he was paid at the rate of Rs.5,000/- per month. He claims to have made several representations to the respondents claiming a sum of Rs.54,000/- as arrears and the latest of such being the one, dated 16.06.2008. His grievance is that no action has been taken thereon. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. The conditions, subject to which the petitioner was appointed as Teacher Fellow under the scheme, are contained in the proceedings dated 26.11.2007, issued by the 2nd respondent. The question as to whether the petitioner continued for the full tenure and fulfilled the conditions, and if so, whether he has been extended the monetary benefit, needs to be examined by the 2nd respondent, by obtaining necessary particulars from the 1st respondent. The claim of the petitioner cannot be kept pending indefinitely. Hence, the writ petition is disposed of, directing the 2nd respondent, to pass appropriate orders on the representations made by the petitioner, claiming arrears, within a period of two (2) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. To supplement the record, the petitioner shall enclose copies of the representations along with the copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 26.06.2008 JSU .....
