PURI PRESENT: Mr. R.S. Malik, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Harish Rathee, Sr. D.A.G., Haryana, for the respondents. JASBIR SINGH, J. (oral) Order. By filing this writ petition, petitioners have laid challenge to the orders dated February 16, 2006 (Annexures P-1 and P-2), vide which, after withdrawing benefit of additional increments, granted to them earlier, their pay has been refixed. It is case of the petitioners that the above said benefit has wrongly been withdrawn. It has also been brought to our notice that similar controversy came up for consideration before this Court in Om Parkash and others v. State of Haryana and others, C.W.P. No. 18601 of 2006, decided on April 10, 2008, and a Division Bench of this Court set aside similar action of the respondents, i.e., withdrawing benefit of additional increment (s). Faced with this situation, Shri Rathee has failed to show us anything to CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 17311 OF 2006 -2- the contrary. In view of this, present writ petition is allowed in the same terms as in Om Parkash's case (supra). ( Jasbir Singh ) Judge ( K. C. Puri ) May 20, 2008. Judge DKC
