DATE : 4th September, 2019 ORDER:

1.

Grievance of the petitioners is that their salary are not paid. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that the petitioners are appointed on grant-in-aid posts. Their appointment has been approved. The same is challenged in Writ petition No.9292/2018 by the third person. No stay has been granted by the Court to the order of approval. It is submitted that the Institution has submitted proposal for payment of salary of the petitioners.

2.

It is not a matter of dispute that the proposal seeking approval to the appointment of petitioners is approved by the Education Officer. Same is the subject matter of challenge in Writ Petition No.9292/208. If the petitioners are working on the posts and the posts are

grant-in-aid, then there is no reason to withhold salary of the petitioners for the period they are working. It is submitted that salary bills are also submitted to the Education Officer. The Education Officer shall process the salary bills and take decision upon it, expeditiously, preferably within two months.

3.

Writ petition disposed of. No costs.
