IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11860 of 2005 DR.BAIDYANATH SHARMA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 5 03.05.2010 Mr. Pramod Kumar Sharma, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State are present. Admitted position is that the entire post retiral dues as found admissible to the petitioner has been paid during the pendency of the proceeding. Learned counsel for the petitioner however raises an issue of payment of interest. From the perusal of the statement made in the counter affidavit, I find that the provisional pension of the petitioner was sanctioned within two months from the date of his retirement in January, 2005 and the final sanction was accorded within one year thereafter. As such I do not find any case for award of interest. The writ petition is disposed of. Bibhash ( Jyoti Saran, J.)
