Respondents ----------- 02. 3.2.2009 Learned counsel representing B. R. A.

A similar prayer made by the appellant of L.P.A. No. 90 of 2008 was also accepted by the Division Bench as per order dated 20th August, 2008 which has been brought on record as annexure-3. In view of the above stated position there is no occasion for this Court to decide the matter afresh or pass any new direction. The writ application is disposed of with a direction upon the Vice-Chancellor of B. R. A. University, Muzaffarpur that he shall take up the claim of the petitioner with regard to the above prayer and keeping the notification contained in annexure-2 read with Division Bench decision contained in annexure-3 appropriate steps should be taken for redressal of the grievance of the petitioner who happens to be a retired employee. The Court expects some decision in this regard within a - 2 - period of six weeks from the date of communication/production of a copy of this order. The follow-up action based on the decision of the Vice-Chancellor will be taken by the State Government to meet the obligation. rkp (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J)
