By following a decision in a batch of cases, the Tribunal allowed the Original Application in the following terms :

“I accordingly direct that the applicants shall be absorbed in any establishment posts from the time they completed five years continuous service till the date when they retired from service. After such absorption, their pension and other pension¬ary benefits shall be computed on the basis of the notional fixation of pay in the regular establishment by adding annual increments which fell due and also taking into account various revisions of pay scales that were introduced. The process shall be completed within three months
