¶124

WP(C).No.12319/2019 & Con. Cases

¶125

¶126

JUDGMENT

¶127

The petitioners in these cases - which have all been heard together on account of similarity of the factual circumstances pleaded and the identical nature of the reliefs sought – are stated to be working, both permanently and on contract, with the Attappady Hills Area Development Society (AHADS for short)Agali, Palakkad. They have approached this Court seeking arrears of salary, as also benefits of medical allowance and leave surrender, alleging that same have not been disbursed to them on account of certain untenable objections raised by the Finance Department. The petitioners, therefore, pray that these benefits be directed to be disbursed to them at the

¶128

earliest.

¶129

I notice that, on hearing the

¶130

learned counsel for the petitioners - Shri.Lindons C.Davis, on 04/01/2021, this

¶131

WP(C).No.12319/2019 & Con. Cases

¶132

¶133

Court had directed the learned Government

¶134

Pleader - Shri.Sunil Kumar Kuriakose to obtain instructions as to why the medical

¶135

allowances and leave surrender benefits have not been disbursed to the petitioners, after recording his submission that the arrears of salary had already been disbursed.

¶136

Today, Shri.Sunil Kumar Kuriakose,

¶137

learned Government Pleader, submits that,

¶138

going by the terms of engagement of the petitioners, they were all on contract or on daily wages and therefore, that they are not entitled to medical allowances or leave surrender benefits, though some of them may have been entitled to medical reimbursement as per the extant Rules and Regulations, provided they were appointed to sanctioned posts. He, however, asserted that none of the petitioners in these cases were appointed to sanctioned posts and therefore, that, except

¶139

salary, they are not entitled to medical

¶140

WP(C).No.12319/2019 & Con. Cases

¶141

¶142

allowances or leave surrender benefits. He,

¶143

therefore, prayed that these writ petitions be closed.

¶144

In reply, Shri.Lindons C.Davis,

¶145

learned counsel for the petitioners, submitted that he has produced details of the employees under the AHADS as Ext.P7 in W.P(C)No.12319 of 2019, to point out that

¶146

some of the petitioners herein were appointed on a permanent basis, while others were appointed only on contract/daily wage basis.

¶147

He conceded that in the case of those petitioners who have been appointed on contract/daily wage basis, they are not entitled to medical allowances or surrender of leave benefits but that, as regards those who are appointed permanently, they are certainly entitled to such benefits, going by Ext.P7. Shri.Lindons C.Davis, therefore, prayed that respondents be directed to pay such benefits to those petitioners who were

¶148

WP(C).No.12319/2019 & Con. Cases

¶149

¶150

appointed permanently.

¶151

When I consider the afore submissions, it is without doubt that the stand of the Government, as voiced by the learned Government Pleader, Shri.Sunil Kumar Kuriakose, is that none of the petitioners in these cases were appointed permanently or to sanctioned posts and therefore, that except salary, they are not entitled either to medical allowances or to leave surrender benefits; while Shri.Lindons C.Davis - learned counsel for the petitioners, contends to the contrary with respect to some other petitioners, however, without specifying who among them are so permanently appointed.

¶152

It is, therefore, obvious that there is dispute regarding the facts, which cannot be resolved by this Court, while acting under Article 226 of Constitution of India, going by the well recognized constraints of jurisdiction in dealing with disputes in the

¶153

WP(C).No.12319/2019 & Con. Cases

¶154

¶155

factual realm.

¶156

that if any of the petitioners have a case that they were appointed permanently and to sanctioned posts, then they must approach the competent Authority with a request for disbursement of their medical allowances and leave surrender benefits; and if this is done within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, then the competent Authority will consider the same, taking note of Ext.P7 in W.P(C)No.12319 of 2019 and after hearing each of them – either physically or through video conferencing.

¶157

These writ petitions are ordered on the afore lines.
