Mr. S.S.Gill, DAG Punjab for the respondents. *** 1. Whether Reporters of Local Newspapers 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 ? *** AJAY TEWARI, J (Oral) C.M.No.7337 of 2010 By this application, the applicants/petitioners have prayed that the main writ petition is covered by the decision of this Court in CWP No.17156 of 2008, decided on 1.7.2009, Dr. Jagmohan Singh and others Vs State of Punjab and others, since similar questions of law and facts are involved therein. C.W.P No.13063 of 2005 The petitioners, in this writ petition, have prayed for the grant C.W.P No. 13063 of 2005 (O&M) ::2:: of additional increment on the ground that they had attained higher qualification after joining service. It has been averred that earlier this benefit was granted to the petitioners but later on, in view of the instructions dated 23.5.2001, the same was partly withdrawn. Counsel for the respondents has fairly stated that the facts and legal issues involved in this writ petition are identical to those raised in C.W.P No.17156 of 2008 (supra), where in a similar situation the said petition was allowed. In the circumstances, the application is allowed and this writ petition is disposed of in the same terms as in CWP No.17156 of 2008. As the main writ petition has since been allowed, all the pending civil miscellaneous applications, if any, also stand disposed of. ( AJAY TEWARI ) July 14, 2010. JUDGE `kk'
