TO JUDGE tss P.N.RAVINDRAN, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W.P.(C) No. 1261 of 2009 A =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this the 29th day of June, 2009 JUDGMENT The petitioner is a pensioner. He retired from service on 31-10-2007 on attaining the age of superannuation. The grievance voiced by him in this writ petition is that though pension and other terminal benefits have been disbursed, D.C.R.G. has not so far been disbursed. 2. The learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondents, on instructions, submits that the Government have no objection to disburse D.C.R.G. to the petitioner and that payment will be effected expeditiously. I accordingly dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to disburse to the petitioner the D.C.R.G. sanctioned to him. Payment of D.C.R.G. shall be made within one month from the date on which the petitioner produces a certified copy of this judgment before the Registrar of Co-operative Societies. If payment is not made as directed above, the petitioner will be entitled to interest at the rate of 7.5% per annum on the D.C.R.G. from 1-7-2009 onwards till the date of payment. The Government W.P.(C) No.1261/09 2 shall recover the interest thus paid from the officers responsible for not paying the D.C.R.G. within the time limit fixed by this Court. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. P.N.RAVINDRAN, JUDGE. mn.
