J U D G M E N T The petitioners are retired employees of the K.S.R.T.C. Their grievance in this writ petition is that although they are liable to wait in the queue for receiving DCRG and Commuted Value of Pension, they are entitled to receive the Provident Fund and Staff Welfare amount immediately on retirement which have not been paid to them. The learned Standing Counsel for the K.S.R.T.C. on instructions submits that the amount would be paid within one month. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent to pay to the petitioners the Provident Fund and Staff Welfare amounts due to them within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE rhs
