RAMANA WRIT PETITION NO : 5840 of 2007 DATED: 23.3.2007 Between: Sri Ganithi Narayana Rao petitioner And The Deputy Commissioner, Endowment Department, Warangal & another respondents THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V.RAMANA WRIT PETITION NO. 5840 OF 2007 ORAL ORDER: The present writ petition is filed questioning the action of the respondents in not paying the arrears of salary to the petitioner for the period from 01.8.2005 to 22.12.2005 in terms of his representations dated 22.2.2007. The petitioner claims that initially he was appointed as NMR clerk in the second respondent temple and subsequently vide proceedings dated 26.5.1994 he was appointed as attender and continued as such. That by proceedings dated 22.7.1996 his salary was enhanced from Rs.200/- to Rs.740/- and D.A. and H.R.A was granted to him w.e.f. 1.4.1997. Vide proceedings dated 6.10.2004 first respondent accorded permission for enhancement of scale of pay and the same were implemented by second respondent by proceedings dated 6.11.2004 fixing the salary of the petitioner at Rs.2276/-. While so, by proceedings dated 23.12.2005 the services of the petitioner along with one Sri Ch.Murali were terminated on the ground that establishment expenses of the staff cannot exceed 60 % of the assessable income. Against the termination order, petitioner preferred an appeal to the Regional Joint Commissioner. The Appellate Authority by order dated 6.5.2006 set aside the termination order and directed the Deputy Commissioner, Warangal to absorb in 6 (c ) institution, Kota Maisamma Ammavari Devastanam. In terms of the said orders the petitioner joined the duty on 2.6.2006. Questioning the action of the respondents in not paying the salary for the period 1.8.2005 to 22.12.2005 the petitioner filed W.P. No. 2693 of 2007 and obtained interim order dated 13.2.2007 directing the respondents 3 to 5 to pay the salary to the petitioner every month. Thereafter petitioner submitted a representation dated 22.2.2007 requesting the Executive Officer of second respondent to release arrears of salary till 22.12.2005. Since, no action is taken on the said representation, the present writ petition is filed. Since the representation of the petitioner dated 22.2.2007 is stated to be pending, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the second respondent to pass appropriate orders on the representation of the petitioner dated 22.2.2007 in accordance with law expeditiously. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ____________ N.V.RAMANA,J DATE: 23.3.2007 TVK THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA WRIT PETITION NO : 5840 of 2007 DATED: 23.3.2007
