Mr.B.Pugalendhi Special Government Pleader O R D E R Mr.B.Pugalendhi, Special Government Pleader takes notice on behalf of the respondents 1 to 3. In view of the limited order to be passed in the writ petition, I am not ordering notice to the fourth respondent. 2. The petitioner has come up with the present writ petition for a mandamus directing the respondents to consider the petitioner's representation dated 20.01.2011. 3. The case of the petitioner is that he was initially appointed as Physical Education Teacher in Assumption Higher Secondary School, Chennai on 07.06.1989 and has completed M.Phil in Alagappa University on 06.05.2010. On 17.03.1998, he was transferred to the fourth respondent school. As per G.O.Ms.No.324 dated 25.04.1995, a Physical Education Teacher, who possess higher education in the respective fields, are entitled to get incentive increments. Since the petitioner has completed M.Phil in Physical Education, he made a representation dated 20.01.2011 for conferring him such incentive increments. However, so far the same has not been ordered by the respondents and hence the petitioner has filed the present writ petition for the relief set out earlier. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 4.
