HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.PRAKASH RAO AND HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.N.RAO NALLA WRIT PETITION No.11498 of 2011 ORDER: (per Hon’ble Sri Justice B.Prakash Rao) Heard Sri K.S.Murthy, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Sri C.Srinivas Baba, learned Standing Counsel for the Central Government and at their request the main writ petition itself is taken up for disposal at the stage of admission. The petitioner herein is unsuccessful applicant before the Central Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad, in an application-O.A.No.259 of 2009 purportedly filed under Section 19 of the Administrative Tribunals Act, wherein he sought certain reliefs with regard to the scales of pay, however, the Tribunal has not acceded to his request and hence, the present writ petition. During the course of arguments, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that subsequent to the dismissal of the Review Application No.34 of 2010 in the said O.A. by the Tribunal an order, dated 01.12.2010, he got information under the Right to Information Act, 2005, by proceedings No.F-21-84/2010-UTI, that similar benefit is extended to Primary School Teachers with effect from 01.01.1996. This fact was not brought to the notice of the Tribunal nor there was any assistance as such to the Tribunal in this regard. If this fact is taken into consideration, necessarily the petitioner will be entitled to the benefit. In view of the same, we are of the opinion that the matter requires fresh consideration since the obtaining of the said information is after the impugned order was passed by the Tribunal and was not in the knowledge of either the parties or the Tribunal. The writ petition is accordingly allowed and the impugned order is set aside and the matter is remitted to the Central Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad for fresh disposal, on merits, and in accordance with law. Both the parties are at liberty to amend their respective pleadings and also their arguments in this regard by taking necessary steps to which they are entitled to. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ JUSTICE B.PRAKASH RAO _______________________ JUSTICE B.N.RAO NALLA 25th April 2011 DR
