THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO W.P.NO.6248 OF 2006 ORDER: This writ petition has been instituted for quashing the orders passed by the Industrial Tribunal-cum-Labour Court at Warangal, in M.P.No.23 of 2003, dated 08-02- 2006. The writ petitioner moved the said M.P.No.23 of 2003, under Section 33-C(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, claiming an amount of Rs.61,119/- from the respondents. The respondents are the Officers of the A.P. TRANSCO. It was claimed by him that he was appointed as Electrician Grade-II in Balimala Project in the Work Charged Establishment, which is a joint venture of the States of Andhra Pradesh and Orissa, for the purposes of generating and supplying power to both the States. After completion of the Project, the services of the Petitioner and similarly placed others were terminated on 30-06-1979. Then, W.P.No.4575 of 1979 was instituted in this Court. That writ petition came to be decided by an Order dated 30-01-1981, directing the writ petitioner to be absorbed as Electrician Grade-II. Pursuant to the said Order, the writ petitioner came to be absorbed again on 18-02-1981. Once again, his services came to be terminated, as there was a dispute between the respondent Board and the Government of Andhra Pradesh. Once again, W.P.No.14463 of 1985 was filed. That writ petition was allowed on 13-10-1987. Pursuant to that Order, the 2nd respondent has taken the writ petitioner back to duty as Electrician Grade-II on 07- 07-1989, but however, he was put on the minimum time scale of pay of Rs.910-3-1240-35-1625. For the purpose of proper fixation of his pay, he instituted the third writ petition (W.P.No.80 of 1991). On 04-03-1991, this Court directed the respondents to consider his representation dated 12-02-1990 and pass appropriate Orders thereon. That representation has been turned down by the respondents, which gave raise to W.P.No.5919 of 1993 being filed into this Court. That writ petition came to be disposed of on 18-03-1997, duly recording the undertaking given by the respondent Board. Thereafter, W.P.No.14049 of 1997 was filed seeking for regularization of his services. That was decided on 22- 10-1998, directing the respondents to pay the entire arrears payable to the writ petitioner in the time scale of pay of Lineman w.e.f. 30-01-1981, till this date, after deducting the amounts paid to him. The writ petitioner has since retired from service on attaining the age of superannuation on 30-06-1998, he has, therefore, claimed the differential wages in that regard. That is how the M.P. in question came to be instituted. The learned Standing Counsel for the respondent Board has brought to my notice today that the Senior Accounts Officer, O/o The Superintending Engineer, Operation Circle, NPDCL, Warangal, through his letter bearing No.232 dated 02-09-2009, was informed of the authorization for payment of commuted value of pension of Rs.1,66,817/- to the writ petitioner. The writ petitioner, therefore, is to be paid this amount by the Divisional Engineer Electrical, Operation/NPDCL, Mahabubabad, after deducting therefrom a sum of Rs.81,965/-, representing commuted value for Rs.1,329/-, out of the total pension of Rs.3,988/-, granted to the writ petitioner. Sri Nutalapati Krishna Murthy, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this money has not, in fact, been paid so far though more than one month elapsed. He submits, that an Order for payment of this sum would suffice, in this writ petition. It is, therefore, only appropriate that this writ petition is liable to be disposed of in view of these orders passed by the Office of The Superintending Engineer, Operation Circle, NPDCL, Warangal, sanctioning the commuted value of the pension payable to the writ petitioner. I hope and trust that the Divisional Engineer Electrical, Operation/NPDCL, Mahabubad, would immediately release the money payable to the writ petitioner in terms of letter bearing No.232 dated 02-09-2009, issued by the Senior Accounts Officer, O/o The Superintending Engineer, Operation Circle, NPDCL, Warangal, at any rate within thirty days from the date of receipt of a copy of this Order. With this, since, no further orders are needed to be passed, the writ petition stands dismissed, but however, without costs. --------------------------------- Nooty Ramamohana Rao, J mrk 16th November 2009
