DENESAN, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = W.P.(C) No. 33243 OF 2006 G = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 16th January, 2007 J U D G M E N T The petitioner retired from service on 30-10-1997 while working as Special Grade Secretary, Mundakkayam Grama Panchayat. The grievance of the petitioner is that he has not been given the benefit of pay revision with effect from 1-3-1997. Ext. P5 representation filed by him is pending with the 1st respondent. It appears that the Government have already called for reports from the subordinate authorities. 2. On a consideration of the issues raised in this writ petition, I am of the opinion that a time limit has to be fixed for taking final decision on Ext. P5. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to pass final orders on Ext. P5 within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment. The petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the 1st respondent for compliance. K.K. DENESAN JUDGE jan/
