HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.23240 OF 2010 ORDER: The petitioner is the Union of employees of the Greater Visakhpatnam Municipal Corporation. It is stated that quite a large number of persons were engaged on contract basis and totally inadequate and unreasonable remuneration is being paid. The Government issued G.O.Ms.No.171 Finance (PC-III) Department dated 13-05-2010 revising the remuneration for full time contingent employees from 3,850/- per month to 6,700/- per month. Petitioner made representation dated 15-05-2010 to the Corporation with a prayer to implement the G.O. in respect of the contingent employees, working in the Corporation. Its grievance is that no action is taken thereon. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned standing counsel for the Corporation. 3 . The G.O. referred to above, directs enhancement of the remuneration payable to the contingent employees. The question as to whether the members of the union are the contingent employees working in the Corporation, are entitled for the benefit under this G.O. needs to be examined. It is no doubt true that extension of the benefit would result in financial implication to the Corporation. At the same time, the interests of the employees also need to be protected. Matters of this nature cannot be kept pending indefinitely. 4. Hence, the Writ Petition is disposed of directing the 1st respondent to examine the representation dated 15-05-2010 submitted by the petitioner with reference to G.O.Ms.No.171, dated 13-05-2010 and pass appropriate orders within a period of two (2) months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ L. NARASIMHA REDDY, J September 21, 2010. KTL
