IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civl Writ Petition No.15261 of 2011 Date of Decision : September 13, 2011. Mohinder Singh and others .....Petitioners versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.S.K.Rattan, Advocate, for the petitioners. Ms.Sudeepti Sharma, DAG, Punjab. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers 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? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) Notice of motion. Ms.Sudeepti Sharma, learned Deputy Advocate General, Punjab, accepts notice on behalf of the respondents. Let three copies of the writ petition be supplied to the learned State counsel during the course of day failing which the order shall be automatically recalled and the writ petition shall be deemed to have been dismissed for non-prosecution. In view of the nature of order which I propose to pass, there is no need to seek any counter reply from the respondents at this stage. CWP No.15261 of 2011 [2] The petitioners who are retired Lecturers/Masters/Mistresses/ DPE from the Education Department, Government of Punjab, seek the benefit of revision of pay scales w.e.f. 1.11.1971 in stead of 16.7.1975 in terms of the order dated 24.3.2009 passed by this Court in Civil Writ Petition No.2208 of 1989 (Lekh Raj Khera and others versus State of Punjab and another) (Annexure P-6) filed by the similarly placed employees. The grievance of the petitioners is that the respondents have not granted the aforesaid relief to them despite a legal notice served on their behalf. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition, however without expressing any views on the merits of the petitioners' claim, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the same with a direction to the respondents to consider and dispose of the the petitioner's claim in terms of Lekh Raj Khera's case (supra), by passing a speaking order within a period of four months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. September 13, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
