W.P.(C). NO. 21901 OF 2006

Dated this the 2nd day of August, 2007
J U D G M E N T
The primary prayer in this writ petition, which is at the instance
of Higher Secondary School Teachers in various subjects, is to issue
a direction to the respondents to grant them the scale of pay of
Higher Secondary School Teacher (Full-time). It is the specific case
of petitioners that the decision rendered by a Division Bench of this
Court in Ext.P7 judgment is squarely covered in their favour.
2. Learned counsel invites my attention to an order recently
issued by the Government in G.O. (MS) No.60/2007/G.Edn. dated
March 12, 2007. In the said order, the Government has decided to
“accord sanction for payment of arrear salary to those Aided Higher
Secondary School Teachers who were paid salary at the rate of
Guest teachers till 30.11.2001 in the scale of pay admissible to
Higher Secondary School Teachers.” It is further ordered that “the
arrears of salary consequent to this upto 31.12.2006 will be merged
to their P.F. Account and the same will be allowed to be withdrawn
only after 31.12.2011.”

In view of the intervening developments, no further orders are
necessary in this writ petition other than directing respondent No.3 to
issue appropriate consequential orders in terms of the order of the
Government referred to above. This shall be done, as expeditiously
as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of
a copy of this judgment.
Ordered accordingly.
