They were advised by the Public Service Commission on 24.2.1998 and 19.8.1999 respectively. Their grievance is in relation to the provisional service which they had rendered prior to the commencement of their regular service. Petitioners submit that Junior Public Health Nurses advised by the Public Service Commission, were later regularised in service with reference to a date from the commencement of their provisional service. In other words, their date of commencement of regular service related back to the date on which they commenced provisional service. Petitioners refer to Exhibit P5 order passed by the Additional Director of Health Services. Learned counsel for the petitioners relies on the order of the Supreme Court, Exhibit P4 as also a judgment of this Court in W.P. (C ) No.547 of 2005 and the judgment of the Full Bench of this Court reported in State of W.P ( C) No. 430 of 2008 2 Kerala Vs. Ponnamma [2005 (4) KLT 987]. The claim of the petitioners are raised before the Director as per Exhibits P6 and P7. 2. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, I direct the first respondent to take a decision on Exhibits P6 and P7 within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The first respondent shall take into account the judgments mentioned above, both of the Supreme Court as well as of this Court and any other judgment, which the petitioner may, place before him. The petitioners may file an additional representation. The petitioners may be heard before the first respondent takes a decision in this regard.
