According to the petitioner, for the period up to May 2009, she was being paid Rs.2,700/- + D.A., and thereafter Rs.2,300/- +D.A. alone is paid. The petitioner complained about the reduction in the pay by filing Ext.P2 representation before the 2nd respondent, and submits that the payment, which is now given to her, is against Ext.P3, G.O.(P.)No.501/2005/Fin. dated 25/11/2005. Ext.P2 representation has not been considered by the 2nd respondent so far, and it is in these circumstances, this writ petition is filed. 2. As already stated, the petitioner has ventilated her grievance before the 2nd respondent by filing Ext.P2, and that representation remains unattended. Therefore, as at present, the grievance of the petitioner will be redressed, if Ext.P2 representation is considered in the light of Ext.P3 referred to above. WP(C) No.29286/2009 -2- Therefore, I direct the 2nd respondent to consider Ext.P2 representation in the light of Ext.P3 government order and pass orders thereon. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment, along with a copy of this writ petition. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
