Petitioner's grievance in this writ petition is that retirement benefits due to the petitioner, namely provident fund, staff welfare fund, pay revision arrears and surrender leave salary, have not been disbursed to the petitioner. This Court has been consistently directing the KSRTC to pay off the provident fund and staff welfare fund amounts due to the retired employees immediately on retirement. Accordingly, there would be a direction to the respondent to pay to the petitioner the provident fund and staff welfare fund amounts due to him within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. In respect of other claims, the petitioner has already filed Exhibit P3 representation before the respondent. Therefore, it is directed that Exhibit P3 shall be considered and appropriate orders passed as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. Sd/- S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE skr // True copy // P.A. to Judge.
