(Order of the Court was delivered by R.SUBRAMANIAN, J.) The orders of this Court, contempt of which is complained of, directed regularisation of the workers in a particular scale of pay and also directed monetary benefits to be given with effect from 01.10.2017. The 2/5

Government has now issued a Government Order in G.O.(3D). No.75 dated 21.08.2024 conferring the benefits on the employees.

2. It is the grievance of Mr.V.Prakash, learned Senior Counsel appearing for the petitioner that some of the petitioners have been retired on attaining the age of 58, though they are entitled to continue in service till 60. We leave that question open to be agitated by the petitioners, if they are so aggrieved. As of now, the orders of the Division Bench directing payment of a particular pay scale to all the petitioners have been complied with.

3. Mr.P.Kumaresan, learned Additional Advocate General would assure the Court that those of the petitioners, who are still working will retire only at the age of 60.

4. Hence the Contempt Petition is closed.
