THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 24/09/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ================ W.P.(C) NO. 25812 OF 2009 (V) ===================== Dated this the 24th day of September, 2009 J U D G M E N T The issue raised in this writ petition filed by an Organization representing the Workshop Instructors, Demonstrators/Trade Instructors and allied categories in the Department of Technical Education is for revision of pay scale and for introduction of ratio in the matter of promotion. They made Ext.P1 representation urging this claim before the 1st respondent, on which, by Ext.P2, the 2nd respondent has given his recommendations as well. However, so far the 1st respondent has not taken a decision on Ext.P1 in the light of the recommendations referred to above and that led the petitioner to file this writ petition. 2. I heard the learned Government Pleader also in this matter. 3. Having regard to the pendency of Exts.P1 and P2 before the 1st respondent, atleast at this stage, the grievance raised in this writ petition will be redressed if the 1st respondent expedites its decision on Ext.P1. 4. Accordingly, I direct the 1st respondent to consider WPC 25812/09 :2 : Ext.P1 in the light of Ext.P2 recommendation submitted by the 2nd respondent with notice to the petitioner and as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within four months of production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
