Non payment of the DCRG is what is complained of. 2. In the counter affidavit filed, the respondents has finalised a statement, showing the disciplinary proceedings, based on which the liability is sought to be fixed against him. The total amount proposed to be recovered from the petitioner as indicated in Ext.R1(a) is Rs.27,088/-. It is further stated in the counter affidavit that a liability of Rs.2170/- has already been fixed. Thus the total liability that is likely to be fixed against the petitioner is about Rs.29,258/-. As against this, the counter affidavit shows that the DCRG due is Rs.1,24,108/-. Such being the case I see no reason to withhold the entire liability pending finalization of the disciplinary action. 3. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to ensure that the DCRG less the liability fixed or to be fixed against the petitioner is disbursed to him as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 8 weeks from the WPC.No. 19602 /09 :2 : date of production of a copy of the judgment. 4. It is also directed that the proceedings against the petitioner should also be expedited. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 4 months from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a copy of this writ petition before the first respondent for compliance. (ANTONY DOMINIC) JUDGE vi/
