Exts. P3 & P5 are certain orders passed the Government earlier, as recommended by M/s. Oil Palm India Ltd., to rectify the anomalies in the Pay Scale Order. Apparently these were not adequate. Hence Ext.P6, the memorandum, is submitted by the petitioner and other unions before the Government, and apparently, the Management has also urged the Government to rectify the anomalies as sought for therein. 2. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, this writ petition is disposed of directing 1st respondent to take a decision on Ext.P6 in the light of Exts.P7 & P8 recommendations, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Representative of the petitioner shall be heard before the Government takes a decision in this regard. (V.GIRI, JUDGE.) jg
