JUDGMENT
Petitioners in both these cases are employed in the Industries Department. They are aggrieved by Ext.P4 order passed by the third respondent fixing their pay in the post of Machine operators with effect from 19.9.1998. They have challenged the same before the Government as per Ext.P5 submitted on 8.10.2007 pointing out the anomaly which crept in Ext.P4. They refer to Exts.P1, P2 and P3 judgments to contend that they are entitled to fixation of pay in the scale of pay of Machine operators as on 19.9.1998 in the scale of Rs.1200-2040.

petitioners and take a decision keeping in mind Exts.P1 to P3 judgments, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. If petitioners' claims are found acceptable, obviously enforcement of Ext.P4 will be subject to the decision taken by the Government as aforementioned.
