HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE G.CHANDRAIAH WRIT PETITION No.31953 of 2011 Dated 14-12-2011 Between: A.Balaji. …Petitioner. And: APSRTC represented by Regional Manager, Khammam, Khammam District and another. …Respondents. HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE G.CHANDRAIAH WRIT PETITION No.31953 of 2011 ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking to declare the inaction of the respondent-Corporation in completing pay fixation at appropriate stage i.e., @ Rs.5,595/- as prepared in the month of December, 2006 despite representations dated 16-12-2006 and 25-9-2010 as illegal and arbitrary and consequently, direct the respondent-Corporation to verify the record and fix pay Rs.5,595/- as prepared in the month of December, 2006 and release arrears. The case of the petitioner, in brief, is as follows: At present, he has been working as conductor, APSRTC, Sathupally Bus Depot, Khammam District. While so, the 2nd respondent-Corporation had made pay fixation in the month of December, 2006 and even prepared pay slip in which his pay was fixed @ Rs.5,595/- by following regulations. Thereafter, when he made a representation to the 2nd respondent to restore the fixation as prepared in the month of December, 2006, the 2nd respondent-Corporation gave a reply dated 20-3- 2010 showing fixation in the special grade with effect from 1-12-2004 @ Rs.5,350/- instead of Rs.5,465/- and thereafter, Rs.5,595/-in the month of December, 2006. Instead of effecting pay fixation at appropriate stage and counting notional increment from 1-8-2004, the 2nd respondent-Corporation has counted notional increment from 1-12-2004. He again submitted representation on 25-9-2010 explaining the defect and requested to set right the issue and fix his pay as mentioned above. He had lost two increments in the year 2009. In this view of the matter, he approached this Court by filing this writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-Corporation. It is contended by the learned counsel for the petitioner that instead of effecting pay fixation at appropriate stage and counter notional increment from 1- 8-2004, the 2nd respondent-Corporation has counted notional increment from 1-12-2004. It is further contended that again the petitioner has submitted another representation dated 25-9-2010 explaining the defect and requested to set right the issue and fix his pay at appropriate place @ Rs.5,595/- which was fixed in the month of December, 2006, but there is no response from the 2nd respondent-Corporation and hence, the inaction of the respondents-Corporation is illegal and arbitrary. On the other hand, it is contended by the learned standing counsel for the respondent-Corporation that the respondent-Corporation may be directed to dispose of the representation in accordance with law. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and having regard to the submissions of both the learned counsel and in view of the representation dated 25-9-2010 alleged to have been still pending with the respondents-Corporation, I feel it just and proper to direct the respondent-authorities to consider the representation dated 25-9-2010 submitted by the petitioner on the issue of the fixation of his pay and dispose of the same within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With the above observation, this writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ____________________ Justice G.CHANDRAIAH Dated 14-12-2011.
