CWP No. 9663 of 2010 1 IN THE PUNJAB AND HARYANA HIGH COURT AT CHANDIGARH CWP No. 9663 of 2010 (O&M) Date of Decision : 06.08.2010 Santosh Sabikhi .......... Petitioner Versus Union of India & others ...... Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE VINOD K. SHARMA Present : Ms. Rahish Pahwa Dudeja, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Amit Sharma, Advocate for the respondents. **** VINOD K. SHARMA, J. (ORAL) C.M. No. 10565 of 2010 Dismissed as not pressed. CWP No. 9663 of 2010 The petitioner seeks medical reimbursement for the treatment of her late husband. The case of the petitioner is that total medical reimbursement has not been paid to her till date, as per the Government Rules. The contention of the learned counsel for the petitioner was, that respondents have misread the Service Rules with regard to the grant of medical reimbursement in denying the medical expenses incurred in treatment at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital by treating it to be a private hospital though it is an approved / recognised hospital by the CWP No. 9663 of 2010 2 Govt. However, from the pleadings of the petitioner, as well as the stand taken by the respondents in the written statement filed, it is revealed that till date no order has been passed by the competent authority, either accepting or rejecting the claim of the petitioner. Notice issued by the counsel for the petitioner has been replied by the counsel for the respondents without disclosing any order of the competent authority. This petition, therefore, is premature and disposed of with a direction to the respondents to pass a speaking order qua claim of the petitioner. The order accepting or rejecting her claim be passed within two months of receipt of certified copy of this order. No costs. 06.08.2010 (VINOD K. SHARMA) 'sp' JUDGE
