benefit of Ext.P7 is extended to them and only seeks a direction
to the respondents to extend the monitory benefits as ordered in
the said Government Order.
3. Having regard to the contents of the Government
Order dated 22/9/09 referred to above, this writ petition is
WPC 28109/09
:2 :
disposed of directing the 3rd respondent to pass appropriate order
on their claim to extend the monitory benefits flowing from Ext.P7
