WP(C) 5942/2010 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE B. P. KATAKEY Heard Mr H Talukdar, learned counsel for the petitioner, as well as Mr D Saikia, learned standing counsel for Health Department, appearing for the respondent No s.2 to 4. As agreed to by learned counsel for the parties, the matter is taken up for hearing and disposal, at the motion stage itself. The grievance of the petitioner in the present petition is that although pursuant to the order dated 27 January 2010 issued by Director of Health Servic e, Assam, transferring her from the office of the Joint-Director of Health Servi ces, Karimganj to the office of the Joint-Director of Health Services, Barpeta, as surveillance worker, she went to their Barpeta office to join duty, she was n ot allowed and, subsequently, though she submitted her joining report to the Joi nt-Director of Health Services, Barpeta, she has not been paid her salary since 1 February 2010. Learned standing counsel for Health Department submits that since the pe titioner has approached the Joint-Director of Health Services by the representat ion dated 22 February 2010, necessary orders relating to her claim for payment o f salary shall be passed by the authority. Referring to communication dated 4 Au gust 2010, learned standing counsel further submits that the Director has alread y informed the Joint-Director of Health Servcies, Karimganj to pay the salary of the petitioner for the month of February 2010. As noticed above, the claim of the petitioner is with regard to the paym ent of salary from the month of February 2010, which, according to her, has not been paid till date. It appears that the Director of Health Services by the communication dat ed 4 August 2010 has informed the Joint-Director of Health Services, Karimganj t o release the salary of the petitioner for the month of February 2010. By this o rder, the Director has also accepted the position that the petitioner has been t ransferred to the office of the Joint-Director of Health Services, Barpeta. The copy of this order as marked to the petitioner further reveals that her place of posting is shown as surveillance worker in the office of the Joint-Director of Health Services, Barpeta. Therefore, it is not in dispute that the petitioner ha s joined the office of the Joint-Director of Health Services, Barpeta. That being the position, the present writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents, particularly the Joint-Directors of Health Servic es, Karimganj as well as Barpeta to pay the salary of the petitioner from the mo nth of February 2010, if there is no other impediment in releasing payment. This exercise is to be done within a period of 2(two) weeks from today. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. No costs.
