(2) Since common questions of fact and law are involved in these petitions, therefore, these petitions are clubbed together and decided by this common judgment. However, for the sake of brevity and convenience, facts of WPSS No. 1928 of 2025 alone are being considered and discussed.

He submits that if petitioner makes separate fresh representation to the competent authority, the competent authority shall examine the claim of the petitioner and pass necessary orders, as per law. (6) The writ petitions are, accordingly, disposed of with liberty to petitioners to make separate fresh representations claiming benefit of Rule 13(i) & (ii) of Uttarakhand Government Servant Salary Rules, 2016 to Director, Secondary Education. If petitioners make separate representations within two weeks from today, Director Secondary Education shall examine petitioners’ claim and pass necessary orders, as per law, within six months from date of presentation of representation with certified copy of this order.
