IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.8301 of 2006 Smt. Asgari Khatun, Wife of late Ekram, Resident of Village Raipura, P.S. Fatuha in the district of Patna. ------------- Petitioner Versus 1. The Patna Municipal Corporation through the Commissioner, Patna Municipal Corporation, Patna. 2. The Chief Accounts Officer, Patna Municipal corporation, Patna. ------------ Respondents ----------- 8 14.05.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. From the perusal of the record of this Court including the order dated 18.4.2008, it would appear that the issue of death-cum- retirement benefit of the husband of the petitioner stands to have been almost settled save and except for payment of certain amount of interest on the head of group insurance and provident fund. Learned counsel for the Patna Municipal Corporation submits that the interest on the amount of group insurance has already been paid whereas in his view no further amount of provident fund on the head of provident fund is payable. He also submits that a sum of Rs. 7,836/- has already been paid by way of difference of pension for the period 1.4.1997 to 2 30.11.1998. In that view of the matter, this Court would direct the petitioner to submit a compact representation as with regard to the due payment of interest on provident fund/group insurance and on receipt of the same, the Municipal Commissioner of the Patna Municipal Corporation would pass an appropriate order within a period of three months from the date of filing of such representation along with a copy of this order. It goes without saying that if as a consequence of consideration of the Municipal Commissioner, the petitioner becomes entitled for any further payment, the same would also be extended to her within a period of one month of passing of such order. On the other hand, if the Municipal Commissioner would find no further amount to be paid, he would pass a reasoned order so that the petitioner can know her status of entitlement as with regard to the aforementioned claim confined to the payment of interest on provident fund and group insurance. The Municipal Commissioner having complied the aforesaid order would also submit a compliance report to the Registry of this Court. 3 With the aforementioned observations and directions, this application is disposed of.
