Mool Shankar Singh v. Regional Manager, P.N.B. and Anr.

Leave granted. G Heard the learned counsel for the parties. In our view the High Court should have considered the grievance of the appellant on merits pertaining to his claim for higher special .allowances. t_ Merely because in the earlier writ petition the High Court had provided only H 1178 M.S. SINGH v. REGIONAL MANAGER. P.N.B. 1179 for making representation, it would not mean that the matter is closed and the A petitioner was not entitled to approach the High Court, later even though the representation was rejected and no relief was granted to him. The High Court never considered the case on merits. We, therefore, allow the appeal and set aside the order passed by the High Court and remand the matter for consideration on merits. B R.P. Appeal allowed.
