Pursuant to his retirement on 30.11.2006 Ext.P1 pension payment order was issued. The grievance of the petitioner is that in the said pension payment order one of his sons by name K.V.Sijumon who is a physically disabled person has been described as a mentally retarded child. The said endorsement may detrimentally affect his entitlement for getting family pension in case of occurrence of such a contingency. In the said circumstances, the petitioner has submitted Ext.P2 representation requesting the first respondent to carry out correction in Ext.P1 pension payment order to the extent it describes the petitioner's son K.V.Sijumon as mentally retarded child instead of physically disabled person. Since, Ext.P2 representation is already pending before the first respondent this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the first respondent to look into the issue and take appropriate WPC.No.20980/2011 : 2 : action based on the request made as per Ext.P2. This shall be done expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this judgment. Sd/- (C.T. RAVIKUMAR, JUDGE) jma //true copy// P.A to Judge
