THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE K.G.SHANKAR W.P.No.25008 of 2010 ORDER(Per Sri Justice Ghulam Mohammed, J) The petitioners filed this writ petition seeking a writ of certiorari calling for the records relating to the order, dated 16.07.2009, passed in O.A.No.7159 of 2007 by the Andhra Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad (for short ‘the Tribunal’) and to quash the same. 2. The first respondent is an ITI Certificate Holder. He was appointed in the Work Charged Establishment on 13.07.1976 as Grade-III Fitter. The Government issued G.O.Ms.No.288, dated 17.11.1986, introducing the pay scale of Rs.1010-1800 to the employees, who acquired ITI qualification. For not extending the said benefit to him, the first respondent filed O.A.No.2647 of 2006 before the Tribunal, which in turn disposed of the same on 18.06.2007 following its judgment, dated 04.02.2003, passed in O.A.No.4206 of 1992 and batch and also directed him to file a fresh representation to petitioners 1 and 2 herein. Accordingly, he made a representation to petitioner No.2, but no action has been taken thereon. Thereupon, when he filed C.A.No.646 of 2007 before the Tribunal, petitioner No.2 issued a letter, dated 11.10.2007, rejecting his case and consequently, the said contempt case was closed on 09.04.2009. Aggrieved by the said letter, the first respondent filed O.A.No.7159 of 2007 before the Tribunal, which in turn allowed the same setting aside the said letter and directed petitioner Nos.1 and 2 to fix his pay at Rs.1010- 1800 from the date of issuance of G.O.Ms.No.288, dated 17.11.1986, with all arrears and consequential benefits within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of the said order. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioners filed the present writ petition. 3. Heard the learned Government Pleader for Services-II and the learned counsel for respondent No.1. 4. Learned Government Pleader for Services-II contended that the Tribunal ought to have seen the Memo, dated 28.05.1990, issued by the Government that there is a substantial difference in recruitment procedures and accountability between the Work Charged Establishment and regular Government employees, and as such, the said scale of pay is not allowed to the ITI workers under Work Charged Establishment. 5. It is seen from the record that the order, dated 04.02.2003, passed by the Tribunal in O.A.No.4206 of 1992 and batch, directing the petitioners to consider the case of the applicants therein for fixing the scale of pay on par with similarly situated persons working in other departments other than Irrigation Departments and monetary benefits be given from the date of filing of the said O.As., has attained finality as the appeals filed by the petitioners were dismissed by this Court as well as the Apex Court. Further, as against the memo, dated 28.05.1990, relied on by the learned Government Pleader, several cases were filed and the Tribunal directed the Government to consider the clarification issued in O.A.No.4206 of 1992 and batch and that in the order, dated 30.03.21007, passed in O.A.No.6625 of 2004, the Tribunal declared that the ITI qualification holders working under Work Charged Establishment are entitled to the pay scale of Rs.1010- 1800. The said order also attained finality as the appeals filed by the petitioners were dismissed by this Court as well as the Apex Court. Since the first respondent is similarly situated employee, the Tribunal following the said judgments, directed the petitioners to implement the said pay scale to him by fixing the time as stated supra. Therefore, we do not find any merit to interfere with the order impugned. 6. Accordingly, the Writ Petition dismissed. However, the time granted by the Tribunal in the order impugned is extended by 10 more weeks from today. No order as to costs. _____________________ GHULAM MOHAMMED, J _______________ K.G.SHANKAR, J Date:04.03.2011 sj
