JUSTICE AMAN CHAUDHARY Present : Mr. Nayandeep Rana, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Udit Garg, Addl. AG, Haryana. **** AMAN CHAUDHARY, J. (Oral) 1. Learned counsel submits that the petitioner has been denied arrears of pay despite the fact that delayed promotion was on account of fault on the part of the Corporation as the seniority list was not prepared on 1st January of each year. In similar set of facts, Co-ordinate Bench has already disposed of the matter vide judgment dated 12.05.2026, Annexure P18. He, on instructions, thus, prays that his case be considered and decided in light thereof in a time bound manner. 2. Learned State counsel has no objection to the limited prayer made. 3. In view of the above and without commenting on the merits of the case, this petition is hereby disposed of with a direction to the respondents to decide the claim of the petitioner, within a period of 4 months, in accordance with law, taking note of the aforesaid judgment, uninfluenced by the orders impugned herein, which this Court has no reason to believe the authorities would not address in a just, fair and reasonable manner. Upon doing so, after notice and hearing offered to him and if found entitled, grant the benefit forthwith. Needless to say, if the orders are adverse to the interest of the petitioner, the same shall contain reasons and he shall be free to seek legal redress thereupon.
