Harsh Rani .....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Vivek Verma, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks a mandamus for correct fixation of her family pension after adding the DA admissible in terms of the Government Instructions dated 4.10.2010 (Annxure P-4). It may be mentioned that the husband of the petitioner was in service of the respondent-department and he died in harness on 4.4.2008. It appears that the benefit of DA has not been granted to the petitioner towards the family pension for the reason that her son was employed as clerk on compassionate ground in Soil Conservation Department, Punjab. It is averred that as per the latest Government Instructions dated 4.10.2010 (Annexure P-4), the petitioner is entitled to D.A.on the CWP No.9877 of 2011 [2] family pension. The above stated relief is sought by the petitioner vide representations dated 19.10.2010, 28.2.2011 & 10.3.2011 (Annexures P-5 to P-7) also, to which the response, if any, is still awaited. In these circumstances, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to respondent Nos.1 & 2 to consider and dispose of the aforementioned claim of the petitioner and if found entitled, to grant her the due benefits alongwith all the consequential benefits, within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Till then, no recovery shall be effected from the petitioner. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. May 31, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
