CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GURVINDER SINGH GILL Present:- Mr. Gurdial Singh Jaswal, Advocate with Mr. Bhupeshwar Jaswal, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Inderpreet Singh Kang, AAG, Punjab.

***** GURVINDER SINGH GILL, J. (Oral) 1.

The petitioner seeks issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus directing respondents No.1 and 2 to decide representation dated 27.9.2022 (Annexure P-12) and to remove the pay anomaly in the fixation of basic pay of the petitioner so as to bring the same at par with respondent No.3. 2.

A perusal of order dated 28.04.2023 (Annexure P-13) passed by respondent No.2 - Additional Director General of Police, Technical Services, Punjab, Chandigarh, would indicate that case of the petitioner as regards fixation of pay as per the revised dates can be considered only after he submits a self declaration/undertaking in this regard and that too provided he submits his representation as it has been specifically recorded therein that the officials have not submitted the representation.
