                             J U D G M E N T

This writ petition relates to the claim of Assistant Professors in

the service of the Kerala Agricultural University who became

Assistant Professors between 1-1-1986 and 25-6-1990 for the revised

scale of pay applicable to Assistant Professors.

2. The question came up before me yesterday in two other

original petitions, viz. O.P.Nos. 32497/2002 and 7616/2003, in which I

had rendered a decision in favour of the Assistant Professors similarly

situated like the petitioners in this writ petition on the basis of a

Government Order passed subsequent to the filing of this writ

petition. In the above circumstances, following the judgment in those

two original petitions, I allow this writ petition and quash Exts.P.3 and

P4 declaring that the petitioner is entitled to the benefit of the

Government Order referred to in the judgment in O.P.Nos.

32497/2002 and 7616/2003.

Sd/- S. Siri Jagan, Judge.
