ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) NO.20316 OF 2009 (H) -------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 12th day of November, 2009 J U D G M E N T Petitioner retired on 30.4.2007 as Store Superintendent. His grievance is that the DCRG has not been disbursed so far. It is stated that despite furnishing Ext.P3 undertaking to the first respondent there has not been any improvement in the situation. It is therefore that the writ petition is filed. 2. Government Pleader on instructions submits that the NLC has not been issued for non-completion of audit. More than two years have expired since the retirement of the petitioner. Even now the audit is remaining incomplete. In the circumstances, I do not think that there is any justification for the continued non- payment of the DCRG due to the petitioner. Therefore it is only appropriate that the first respondent should accept Ext.P3 undertaking furnished by the petitioner and on that basis disburse the DCRG and full pension to the petitioner. Petitioner may produce a copy of the judgment before the first respondent who shall comply with this direction as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within six weeks from the date of production of a copy of the judgment.
