Jagjit Singh .....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and another .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Jaideep Verma, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner retired from the post of Water Supply Supervisor in the Municipal Council, Rupnagar, w.e.f. 31.10.1995 on attaining the age of superannuation. His grievance is that full retiral dues towards gratuity, leave encashment etc. are yet to be paid to him though some of such dues have been released. The petitioner corresponded with the municipal authorities for a long and also sought information under Right to Information Act. Thereafter, he served the respondents with a legal notice dated 7.9.2010 (Annexure P-7) but without any response thereto. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and considering the fact that the petitioner's claim is founded upon recurring C.W.P.No .17830 of 2010 2 cause of action, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondent-authorities to consider the claim contained in the petitioner's legal notice dated 7.9.2010 (Annexure P-7) and dispose of the same by passing a speaking order, preferably within a period of four months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Needless to say that if the petitioner is found entitled to any monetary benefit, the same shall also be released to him within the afore-said period. Ordered accordingly. Dasti.
