Judgment: IA No.2486/2014 for exemption of court fees is taken up. 2. Considering the fact that the cause of action for all the petitioners is common and they are seeking identical relief, this IA is allowed. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioners at the outset submits that the controversy involved in the matter is finally decided by this Court in Writ Petition No.6773/2006 (Prerna vs. State of MP), decided at Indore Bench. 4. Petitioners submit that they intend to prefer a representation, which may be directed to be decided by the respondents No.2 and 3, in the light of the judgment in Prerna's case (supra), within a stipulated time. 5. The aforesaid innocuous relief prayed for is not opposed by Mrs. Nidhi Patankar, learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents. 6. Accordingly, without expressing any opinion on the merits and entitlement of the petitioners, this petition is disposed of with the following directions: (1) The petitioners shall prefer a detailed representation along with the judgment in Prerna's case (supra) and other judgments they want to place reliance before respondents No.2 and 3, within 10 days from the date of receipt of certified copy of the order. (2) The said respondents shall consider and examine the applicability of such judgments in case of petitioners. In the event the authorities come to the conclusion that the petitioners are entitled for similar benefits and claims, the claims be paid to the petitioners within 60 days. The respondents while deciding the representation shall pass a reasoned and speaking order. 7. With the aforesaid observation, the petition stands disposed of. Certified copy as per rules.
