JUDGMENT

The petitioners are Higher Secondary School Teachers worked as Guest Lecturers in various Government Higher Secondary Schools in Idukki District. They have approached this Court on account of the delay in disbursing the amount due to them.

2. The petitioners were engaged on daily wages. The Director of Higher Secondary Education has also recommended the matter to the Government by Ext.P3.

3. Now, it is pointed out by the learned Government Pleader that this matter is now pending before the Government for budgetary allocation. The Kerala State Human Rights Commission also have recommended the petitioners' case for daily wages due to them.

W.P.(C) No.861 of 2015

4. The learned Government Pleader, on instructions, submits that as and when the Government allocates necessary funds, petitioners will be paid the amount.

5. I am of the view that if the Government is benefited from the service of the petitioners, their right to obtain wages is not depend upon the budgetary allocation of funds. The right of the petitioners cannot be disputed. In view of the above, the following directions are issued:- (i) 50% of the amount due to the petitioners shall be paid within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.

(ii) The balance amount shall be disbursed within a further period of three months.

The writ petition is disposed of as above.
