Counsel, appearing for the Tilka Manjhi Bhagalpur University, Bhagalpur and the State is present. Petitioner’s prayer in this Writ Application was for a direction to the Respondents to make payment of arrears of salary in the revised pay- scale with effect from 01.01.1996. Petitioner’s claim was for Rs. 7,46,447/- (seven lacs, forty six thousand, four hundred and forty seven) only, which includes his difference of arrears of salary in the revised pay-scale. Counter Affidavit and Supplementary Counter Affidavit has been filed on behalf of the University. 2 In the Supplementary Counter Affidavit, it has been stated that total arrears of difference of salary for the period January, 1996 to 23.05.2002 was calculated and the audited amount comes to Rs. 5,64,544.40. This amount has already been paid to the petitioner, vide cheque No. 620297, dated 11.03.2010. Since no one is appearing on behalf of the petitioner, I presume that petitioner has already received his arrears of salary, deposited in his bank account. Accordingly, this Writ Application is disposed of. SKM (Mridula Mishra, J.)
