Head Constable Harcharan Singh and others .....Petitioners versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Amar Vivek, Advocate, for the petitioners. Mr.B.S.Chahal, DAG, Punjab. -.- 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) Notice of motion to respondent Nos.1 to 3 only at this stage. Mr.B.S.Chahal, DAG, Punjab, accepts notice on their behalf. In view of the nature of the order which I propose to pass, there is no necessity to issue notice to private respondent Nos.4 to 9 nor any counter-reply is required from the official respondents at this stage. The petitioners were recruited as Commandos and are presently working as Head Constables in the Punjab Police. Their grievance is that allocation in the District Police Units from the Commando Battalian is being made on pick and choose basis and their juniors have been allocated over-looking their claim. In this regard, the C.W.P.No .4484 of 2010 2 petitioners are said to have represented the authorities but no decision has been taken so far. Vide order dated 4.3.2010 passed in CWP No.566 of 2010 (Ranjit Singh and others versus State of Punjab and others), this Court has constituted an Officers' Committee for redressal of grievances of the similarly situated police personnel. During the course of hearing, learned counsel for the petitioners as well as the learned State counsel agree that the grievances expressed in this writ petition can be effectively redressed by the afore- said Committee. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with a direction to the Officers' Committee to consider the claim of the petitioners in accordance with the Rules/Policies as well as the facts pleaded in the writ petition after giving opportunity of hearing to the parties concerned and make recommendations to the Competent Authority as early as possible, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order.
