BY GP SRI K C SANTHOSH KUMAR BY STANDING COUNSEL SRI B S KRISHNAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 20/03/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: THOTTATHIL B RADHAKRISHNAN, J ........................................... WP(C).NO. 7425 OF 2009 ............................................ DATED THIS THE 20TH DAY OF MARCH, 2009 JUDGMENT The petitioner is an association of officers of ERCMPU, a Regional union under Milma. It attempts to agitate an accusation against the fourth respondent that as Managing Director, he had himself fixed his pay much above what was due to him. Respondents 1 and 4 takes serious exception to the institution of the writ petition by an association and also states that the whole exercise is malafide and is aimed at victimizing the fourth respondent, who entered office as Managing Director more than 11 years ago and is due to retire by June, 2010. While I do not find any ground to issue any direction in the writ petition, it is recorded that the learned Government Pleader submits that Ext.P5 is pending before the second respondent and that appropriate action would be taken in due course, without delay. THOTTATHIL B RADHAKRISHNAN, JUDGE lgk/21/3
