Placing reliance upon the said judgment and the earlier judgments, which have been passed by this Court, petitioners submitted a representation dated 10.03.2012 (Annexure P-4) to respondents but till date, no decision thereon has been taken.
Counsel for the petitioners contends that the petitioners, at this stage, would be satisfied if a direction is issued to the Engineer-in-Chief, PWD, Public Health Haryana-respondent No. 2 to consider and decide the representation dated 10.03.2012 (Annexure P-4) within some specified time.
Without going into the merits of the case or commenting thereon, the present petition is disposed of with direction to the Engineer-in-Chief, PWD, Public Health Haryana-respondent No. 2 to consider and decide the representation dated 10.03.2012 (Annexure P-4) within a period of three months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order. The decision so taken be conveyed to the petitioners forthwith. In case, the petitioners are held entitled to the claim made by them through their representation, the consequential benefits, if any, be released to them, in accordance with law, within a further period of two months.
