Ms. Sunita Jain, G.A.

Hon'ble Shri Justice P. Sam Koshy Order on Board 08/07/2021 1.

The grievance of the petitioner in the present writ petition seems to be the discrepancy that has arisen in granting of the annual increment to the petitioner.

2.

According to the petitioner, the petitioner has been granted annual increment belatedly though he was entitled for the same immediately on completion of one year of service. The counsel for the petitioner further drew the attention of the Court to Annexure P/3 which is a letter issued by the Deputy Director of the Department to

the respondent No.3 to take appropriate action for redressal of the grievance of the petitioner on the issue of annual increment. 3.

Given the said facts and circumstances of the case, the writ petition at this juncture stands disposed of directing the respondents No.2 to 4 to immediately process the claim of the petitioner and try to redress the grievance in accordance with law at the earliest preferably within a period of 60 days from the date of receipt of the copy of this order.

4.

In case if the petitioner is not entitled for the annual increment for which he has not been granted, the respondents shall intimate the petitioner by a speaking and reasoned order in terms of the Rules governing the field.

5.

With the aforesaid observations, the present writ petition stands disposed of.
