IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civl Writ Petition No.9698 of 2011 Date of Decision : May 30, 2011. Mohinder Singh and others .....Petitioners versus The State of Punjab and another .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Vivek Aggarwal, Advocate, for the petitioners. Mr.Rajesh Bhardwaj, Additional Advocate General, 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. Mr.Rajesh Bhardwaj, learned Additional Advocate General, Punjab, accepts notice on behalf of the respondents. 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. The petitioners 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-8) filed by the similarly placed employees. CWP No.9698 of 2011 [2] The grievance of the petitioners is that though they have represented the respondent-authorities vide representation dated 11.10.2010 (Annexure P-9) seeking the aforesaid relief but no action has been taken thereupon so far. 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 petitioners' claim as contained in the above mentioned representation dated 11.10.2010 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. May 30, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
