The petitioner claims that though he was appointed as part time sweeper/lunch room attendant in the 1992 he is rendering the services on par with the full time employees and is being paid 1/3rd salary only. That the second respondent sent the proposals for refixation of the salary of the petitioner along with other employees on 1.6.1998, but no action is taken till date. Hence, the present writ petition. Learned counsel for petitioner submits that petitioner is working continuously since 1992 and rendering full time services on par with regular employees of the second respondent bank and is entitled to refixation of his salary in terms of the recommendations sent by the second respondent. It is further submitted that the second respondent has sent proposals for refixation in the year 1992 and even after lapse of eight years, till date no action is taken by the respondent and sought for interference of this Court. Heard the learned counsel for petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for respondent bank. Since the petitioner claims that he is continuously working since 1992 and rendering services on par with regular employees and the recommendations sent by the second respondent dated 1.6.1998 are pending consideration before the first respondent, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following direction. The first respondent-Regional Manager is directed to examine the proposals, sent by the second respondent dated 1.6.1998, if any pending, and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law expeditiously. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ____________ N.V.RAMANA,J DATE: 25.9.2006 TVK 3 THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA WRIT PETITION NO : 19245 of 2006 DATED: 25.09.2006
