IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civl Writ Petition No.8846 of 2011 Date of Decision : May 19, 2011. Kulwant Singh .....Petitioner versus The State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Manmeet Singh Rana, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks a mandamus to direct the respondents to release his annual increment on promotion as Superintendent Grade-II. It appears from the averments that the said increment has not been released as the petitioner has challenged his transfer order in CWP No.14706 of 2010 on the plea that he was performing the census duties assigned to him by the Government of India. The petitioner has since been relieved from the census duty but his increment has not been released so far. The above stated claim is raised by the petitioner vide a representation dated 14.3.2011 (Annexure P-3) also, the fate of which is still awaited. CWP No.8846 of 2011 [2] In these circumstances, however, without expressing any views on the petitioner's entitlement, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to consider and dispose of the afore-mentioned claim of the petitioner which also contained in the representation dated 14.3.2011, by passing a speaking order within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. May 19, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
