5. We have examined the facts from all facets. The issue of regularisation from the backdate is not in dispute. But, no case has been made out by the appellants as to why the respondents herein are not entitled to monetary benefits from the date of regularisation. It was for the appellants State to regularise the services of the respondents herein, depending on several factors. After the respondents herein have been granted regularisation from the backdate, in the normal course, they are entitled to consequential benefits from the date of regularisation, unless some strong case is made our for not conferring the benefits on the respondents from the date of regularisation. Neither in the G.O. nor in the counter affidavit filed before the learned Single Judge, substantial case has been made out by the State appellants to take a contrary view or to deny the benefits of regularisation from the date of regularisation. The learned Single Judge has rightly come to the conclusion that the grant of regularisation from the backdate without ancillary benefits is of no relevance. It is also not stated in the Government Order that the regularisation is granted for other purpose, but it seems to have been granted for all consequential benefits, which include the monetary benefits. There is no infirmity or illegality in the impugned order. Therefore, the learned counsel would submit that the issue raised in the writ petition squarely covered by the observations of the Hon'ble Division Bench of this Court.
