The petitioner’s grievance is, in brief, thus: The petitioner is the wif e of the respondent No. 3, who is an employee of the Indian Railway, working as Fitter (Grade-I), in carriage painting shop, at New Bongaigaon. Following the fa ct that the respondent No. 3 has ceased to live with the petitioner, the petitio ner has instituted a suit, namely, TS(M) No. 19 of 2004, in the Court of the Civ il Judge, Bongaigaon, seeking maintenance and the Court has directed the respond ent No. 3 to pay Rs. 1,500/- per month to the petitioner and her children as mai ntenance allowance along with Rs. 50,000/- to her unmarried daughter as incidenc e of marriage. Consequent to the failure of respondent No.3 to obey the directio ns given by the Court, the petitioner has already instituted an execution procee ding, namely, T. Ex (M) No. 1 of 2006. In course of time, respondent No. 2, name ly, Chief Workshop Manager, New Bongaigaon Railway Workshop, New Bongaigaon, has started paying monthly allowances to the petitioner by deducting the said amoun t of Rs. 1,500/- per month from the salary of respondent No. 3. Though responden t No.3 had instituted a suit, namely, TS(D) No. 7 of 2002, seeking dissolution o f his marriage with the petitioner, the same was dismissed, on 16-02-2004, by th e Court. The petitioner, thus, continues to be the wife of the respondent No. 3. However, despite the fact that the petitioner has been suffering from cancer, s he and her minor child have not been issued Medical Attendance Identity Card by the railways with the result that the petitioner and her sons and daughter have not been able to receive medical treatment from the arrangement that the railway s have made available to its employees.

Das and Gautam Das, are entitled to be provided with medic al treatment as would be, otherwise, available to respondent No. 3, as members o f the family of respondent No. 3, but as far as the identity card is concerned, the same is issued by the railways in the name of its employee. Considering the fact that the petitioner and her children are entitled t o be provided with medical treatment in the same manner as the respondent No. 3, this writ petition is disposed of with direction to the respondents, particular ly, respondent Nos. 1 and 2, namely, General Manager, NF Railway, Maligaon, Guwa hait and Chief Workshop Manager, New Bongaigaon, Railway Workshop, New Bongaigao n respectively, to provide medical treatment, as may be required, to the petitio ner and her children in the same manner as they would have been entitled to, had they been living with the respondent No. 3. Let requisite Medical Attendance Id entity Card be, therefore, issued, as a special case, to the petitioner and her children. With the above observations and directions, this writ petition shall sta nd disposed of. No order as to costs. Furnish a copy of this order to the learned Standing Counsel, NF Railway .
