NALBARI ASSAM Page No.# 5/6 Advocate for the Petitioner : MR S HOQUE, SANOWARA KHATUN Advocate for the Respondent : SC, ELEM. EDU, GA, ASSAM BEFORE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE NELSON SAILO ORDER Date : 18.12.2025 Heard Mr. S. Hoque, learned counsel for the petitioners and Mr. B. Talukdar, learned Standing Counsel, Elementary Education Department. [2.] Having regard to the nature of the grievance projected by the petitioner, the writ petition is taken up for disposal at this stage itself. [3.] It is the case of the petitioners that they are working as Assistant Teachers (Tutors) and Head Teachers (Tutors) in their respective L.P. Schools in the district of Nalbari. Their respective posts were provincialised under the Assam Education (Provincialisation of Services of Teachers and Re-organization of Educational Institutions) Act, 2017. The grievances projected by them is that although they are performing the same duties like any other regular teachers, they are only getting fixed pay and not regular scale of pay. [4.] The learned counsel submits that the case of the petitioners is squarely covered by a Division Bench Judgment of this Court in Mohor Ali Sheikh & Ors. Vs. State of Assam & Ors., 2024 5 GLT 689. He, therefore, submits that a similar direction may be passed directing the respondent authorities to consider the grant pay scale to the petitioners. [5.] Mr. B. Talukdar, learned Standing Counsel, Elementary Education Page No.# 6/6 Department, submits that he has an agreement with the submissions made by the learned counsel for the petitioners but as the petitioners have submitted a joint representation, it would be not possible on the part of the respondent authorities to club all the matters together for consideration. Therefore, the petitioners may be directed to file separate representations individually. [6.] Considering the above submissions made and upon perusal of the materials available on record, including the Judgment rendered by the Division Bench as referred to herein above, the present case appears to be a covered case. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed of by directing the petitioners to submit their respective individual representations before the Secretary to the Government of Assam, Department of School Education (respondent No. 1), within a period of two (2) weeks from today. All the petitioners will not be required to submit a copy of the writ petition and that only the petitioner No. 1 may submit a copy of the writ petition with annexures before the respondent No. 1 for consideration. The respondent No. 1, upon receipt of the representations from the petitioners, shall consider and dispose of the same within a period of three (3) months from the date of receipt of the representations from the petitioners. [7.] With the above observations and directions, the writ petition stands disposed of. JUDGE Comparing Assistant
