Patol, Distt-Darbhanga Versus 1. The State Of Bihar Through The Secretary, Home (Jail) Department Govenment Of Bihar, Secretariat, Patna 2. The Inspector General (Prison), Home (Jail) Department , Maintenance Secretariat, Patna 2 ----------- 3. 14.10.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. The petitioners 2 to 20 are stated to be the members of the petitioner no. 1 workers Union. The former are stated to be daily wagers working on Class-IV posts seeking similar relief with regard to the grant of emoluments as has been given to other members of the Union performing similar nature of Class-IV duties. Reliance for the purpose is placed on certain earlier orders of this Court. Counsel for the State submits that if the Union seeks to espouse the cause of its members, all such claims should have been raised by it in one writ application whether it be C.W.J.C. No. 8688 of 2006 or any other writ application on which reliance is sought to be placed. The Union espousing the cause of its members cannot be permitted to file repeat applications for the same reliefs. The respondents have filed counter affidavit. That certain benefits of a like nature as presently sought, has been granted to other members of the Union in pursuance of certain orders of this Court is not denied. A distinction is however sought to be made with regard to the petitioners. 3 A representation on behalf of the present petitioners dated 19.2.2010 is stated to be pending. Since there are earlier orders of this Court acted upon by the respondents, the Court considers it prudent to only direct the respondents to consider the present claims in accordance with such criteria and yardstick that the respondents may have adopted including any subsequent circulars/guidelines that may have been issued in respect thereof. Needless to state that the benefit of this order can be available only to those who are still discharging duties. The Court expects such consideration to be done and appropriate order passed within a maximum period of six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. The writ application stands disposed. P. Kumar ( Navin Sinha, J.)
