PASHAM KRISHNA REDDY Counsel for the Respondent : MR.N.JANAKI RAMA RAO The Court made the following : THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED & THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V. RAMULU WRIT PETITION No.21954 OF 1999 ORDER: ( per Hon’ble Sri Justice Ghulam Mohammed ) The 3rd respondent herein filed OA No.8467 of 1998 seeking direction to the official-respondents 1 and 2 herein to pay his salary in the pay scale of Rs.1375-25-1475-30-1625-40-1825-50-2075-60- 2375 with usual allowances attached to the post in which he was working with effect from 1-8-1998 and also pay the arrears and further direction to pay continuously month after month. The said OA was disposed at the admission stage itself by the Tribunal by the impugned order dated 1-12-1998 directing the official respondents herein 1 and 2 herein to pay salary as per the appointment order dated 30-6-1998 of the 3rd respondent from the date he has been working as Non Public Health Worker, if the order dated 30-6-1998 is not cancelled or modified subsequently. 2. It is this order that is challenged in the writ petition by the petitioners who are also stated to be working in 1st respondent- Municipality. It is the assertion of the petitioners that the 3rd respondent has suppressed certain facts and obtained the order impugned challenged in this writ petition. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the respondents. Perused the impugned order. 4. Admittedly, the petitioners are not parties to the OA filed by the 3rd respondent herein hence the various allegations made by the petitioners cannot be gone into in this writ petition. 5. In the circumstances, we do not find any merit in the writ petition and it is accordingly dismissed. However, since it is stated by the petitioners that they have put in 5 to 7 years of service as on the date of cut-off date stipulated in GO Ms.No.212, dated 22-4-1994, the official respondents 1 and 2 herein are directed to consider their case in accordance with law. No order as to costs. ______________________ Ghulam Mohammed, J ______________________ C.V. Ramulu, J Dated: 18th June, 2008 Nrg. .....
