3. Without entering into the merits of the case, subject to Petitioner's fulfilling all the eligibility criterias for grant of Time Bound Pay Scale, let the respondents take a decision on the claim of the Petitioner for grant of benefit of Time Bound Pay Scale. The Petitioner would be at liberty to file another detailed representation before the respondents in addition to the representation already filed earlier, along with all supporting documents like the Circular of the State Government dated 28.04.2008, and also the order of similar relief being granted to similarly placed persons.
