DATE : 3RD DECEMBER, 2009. PER COURT : 1. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner. 2 2. The Petitioner seeks direction for paying him special pay as he worked by holding additional charge of the post of Head Master. 3. The learned counsel appearing for Zilla Parishad states, on instructions, that there were complaints against the Petitioner's conduct. 4. There is no evidence to deny the Petitioner's contention that he held additional charge as Head Master. In this view of the matter, the issue of alleged misconduct on the part of the Petitioner and his holding additional charge has no relevance in respect of special pay to be paid to him. We therefore, direct the Chief Executive Officer, Zilla Parishad, Nanded to pass appropriate orders in respect of special pay, in case the Petitioner really worked by holding additional charge of Head Master during the concerned period, within two months from today. It is made clear that we have expressed no opinion regarding other issues raised 3 by the counsel for the Zilla Parishad. 5. With these directions, Writ Petition is disposed of. [K.U.
