Sivasubramanian.S v. The Chief Engineer (Personal)

O R D E R The present Writ Petition has been filed by a Field Assistant, Sankarankovil SS, TANGEDCO, seeking to quash the order of the second respondent, dated 09.12.2021 and grant promotion to him along with seniority and consequential monetary benefits.

¶2Pending writ petition, the writ petitioner has been granted promotion by way of proceedings dated 04.08.2023 and by way of another proceedings dated 14.08.2023, the petitioner's pay has been revised and arrears with effect from 01.10.2018 has also been sanctioned. However, the grievance of the writ petitioner is that though arrears have been sanctioned, they are yet to be disbursed.

¶3Considering the fact that the prayer sought for in the writ petition has already been granted by way of two proceedings dated 04.08.2023 and

14.08.2023, nothing survives to be adjudicated in the present writ petition. However, the second respondent is directed to disburse the arrears as per the proceedings dated 14.08.2023 within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

¶4Accordingly, this writ petition stands disposed of to the extent as stated above. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently connected Miscellaneous petition is closed.
