THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 27/07/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: svs C.T.RAVIKUMAR, J. --------------------------------------- W.P(C)No.18594 of 2011 ---------------------------------------- Dated 27th July, 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner was a Member of the Kerala Public Service Commission for the period from 31.12.2004 to 31.10.2006. He was drawing a salary of Rs.36,000/- at the time of his retirement. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the pay and allowances of the Chairman and the Members of the third respondent were revised with effect from 1.1.2006 vide GO(MS)No.413/2010/GAD dated 27.12.2010 its benefit was not given to the petitioner. In fact, the revised pay slip was not issued to enable the petitioner to draw salary at the revised rate. In the said circumstances, the petitioner has submitted Ext.P3 to the second respondent Despite the receipt of Ext.P3 no steps were taken to redress his grievances. It is in the said circumstances that this writ petition has been filed. 2. When this matter is taken up for consideration today, the learned Government Pleader, on instructions, submitted that the revised pay slip could not be authorized on account of certain administrative reasons and now revised pay slip has been issued to enable the petitioner to obtain the benefits of the pay revision as per GE19/D/KPSC.MD41/1644 dated 12.07.2011. Evidently, in view of the issuance of the revised pay slip the petitioner could draw the benefits on WP(C).No.18594/2011 2 account of the pay revision made as per Government order dated 27.12.2010. In view of the said position, this writ petition is closed. Sd/- C.T.RAVIKUMAR Judge TKS
