1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR O R D E R S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.7429/2006 (Smt. Daku Devi Vs. State of Raj. & Ors.) Date of order : 22.8.2008 P R E S E N T HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE GOPAL KRISHAN VYAS Mr. Hemant Shrimali, for the petitioner. Mr. Rameshwar Dave, Addl. Govt. Counsel. Mr. S.P. Sharma, for the respondent No.4. Heard learned counsel for the parties. In this case, petitioner – Smt. Daku Devi and respondent No.4 Smt. Jethi Bai, both are claiming retiral benefits and family pension on the ground that they are wives of late Bhera Ram, who was employee of Public Works Department. Upon claim filed by both the claimants vide Annexure-9, both the claimants were directed to file successor certificate after obtaining the same from competent Court and the said communication was sent to both the claimants on 17.4.2006. In my opinion, there is no illegality in the communication dated 17.4.2006 (Annexure-9) because 2 petitioner and the respondent No.4 both are claiming that they are wives of late Bhera Ram . In this view of the matter, there is no force in this writ petition. Accordingly, the same is dismissed. However, both the petitioner and respondent No.4 are at liberty to approach competent court for grant of succession certification in accordance with law. It is expected that as and when the applications are filed by both the claimants, the competent court will decide the same expeditiously within a period of six months from the date of filing applications.
