And 2 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Vijay Vikram Singh Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Ajay Bhanot,J. The petitioner claims that he is entitled to the salary increment and other consequential benefit. He has made a representation before the competent authority but to no avail. The only prayer made by Shri Vijay Vikram Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner is that the representation of the petitioner may be decided within a stipulated period of time. Shri Subhranshu Shekhar, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel submits that the matter requires determination of facts by the competent authority in light of the applicable provisions of law in the first instance. However, he fairly contends that his service benefit/claim is liable to be decided by the competent authority in a reasonable time frame. In wake of the submissions made at the Bar and without going into the merits of the case, the respondent No.2- Managing Director, Shreetron India Ltd., Ghaziabad/Lucknow is directed to decide the representation of the petitioner regarding grant of salary increment and other service benefits in accordance with law within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order along with a fresh copy of the representation.
