C.W.P. No. 11962 of 2011 (1) IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P. No. 11962 of 2011 DATE OF DECISION: 14.07.2011 Kamaljeet Juneja and others ..........Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and others ..........Respondents BEFORE:- HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE DAYA CHAUDHARY Present:- Mr. Peeush Gagneja, Advocate for the petitioners. **** DAYA CHAUDHARY, J. The present petition has been filed by the petitioners for issuing directions to the respondents to release the pension and other benefits to them for which a representation has already been made but the same has not been considered so far. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have retired from different posts, such as Executive Officer, Junior Assistant, Oilman, Chowkidar, Inspector, Assistant Municipal Engineer, Distribution Mistry etc. but their pensionary benefits have not been released by the respondents. Learned counsel further submits that earlier the petitioners were getting pension regularly but subsequently after February, 2011 they are not getting their pension and other retiral benefits. The petitioners have made representation to the respondent-authorities, which is annexed as Annexure P-3 with the petition but no action has been taken so far. Learned counsel for the petitioner also submits that similarly C.W.P. No. 11962 of 2011 (2) situated employees, who were also retirees, filed C.W.P. No. 170 of 2010, which was disposed of by this Court on 30.9.2010 with a direction to the respondents to make payment of the pension as expeditiously as possible. Learned counsel further petitioners submits that the petitioners would be satisfied in case directions are issued to the respondents to decide their representation annexed as Annexure P-3 with the petition. The prayer of the learned counsel for the petitioners appears to be genuine and there is no legal bar in issuing any such directions. Without commenting anything on the merits of the case at this stage, the present petition is disposed of with a direction to respondents No.2 to 5 to consider the representation (Annexure P-3) filed by the petitioners and take necessary action in accordance with law. If the representation is decided in favour of the petitioners, the necessary relief be released to the petitioners within a period of one month from the date of receipt of copy of the order. Disposed of accordingly. July 14, 2011 (DAYA CHAUDHARY) pooja JUDGE Note:-Whether this case is to be referred to the Reporter .......Yes/No
