             SRI. P.M.MANOJ - SR.GP
     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD        ON
04.02.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 WP(C).No.6697 OF 2020              2

                              JUDGMENT

Even though there are various assertions

and allegations in this writ petition, it

will not be necessary for me to go into it in

detail because, pending this lis, it is

conceded by both sides that the petitioner -

who is working as an Upper Primary School

Teacher in 'Vivekasagaram Upper Primary

School', Thrissur - has already been granted

orders of approval with effect from the date

of initial appointment; and obviously,

therefore, all that remains is the question

of payment of salary and other benefits to

her.

2. When this matter was considered by me

on 05/01/2021, the learned senior Government

Pleader, Shri.P.M.Manoj, submitted that

disbursement of salary to the petitioner is

in progress and it will be completed at the

earliest.

3. Shri.M.A.Fayaz, learned counsel for

the petitioner, however, submitted that even

as on today, his client has not been paid her

salary; and therefore, prayed that necessary

directions be issued to the respondents to do

so at the earliest.

In the afore circumstances, recording the

submission of learned Senior Government

Pleader, that the petitioner has already been

offered approval from her initial date of

appointment, I order this writ petition and

direct 4th and 5th respondents to ensure that

salary and other emoluments are disbursed to

the petitioner as early as is possible, but

not later than one month from the date of

receipt of a copy of this judgment.
