the following order on the same day:
O R D E R (oral)
By E.K.Bharat Bhushan, Administrative Member The applicants are employees of Sree Chitra Tirunal Institute for Medical Sciences & Technology (SCTIMST) who retired in 2011/2012. In pursuance to the implementation of the 6th CPC, a Committee for rectifying anomalies and grievances regarding the fixation of pay was appointed by the respondent organization under the nomenclature 'Pay Structure Review Committee. The Committee's report was submitted in May, 2011. However, due to various reasons, the orders relating to the recommendations of the Committee were issued only on 24.08.2012 (Annexure A3). The grievance of the applicants is that a ladder promotion proposed by the Committee and accepted by the Governing Body, at the interval of 7 years, has been denied to them. The 3 OA 17/16 applicants would have been eligible for the said benefit if orders were issued with effect from the date of submission of the report which was subsequently adopted by the Governing Body. They have represented their case as per Annexure A6 representation.
2. This Tribunal is of the view that ends of justice would be met if respondents 1 & 2 are directed take an informed decision on the said representation after giving a personal hearing to the applicants. Final orders regarding the claim put forward by the applicants may be issued within three months from the receipt of copy of this order. We are not expressing any view regarding the merit or otherwise of the claim of the applicants. OA stands disposed of.
