Respondents. ---------------------------------- 2. 18.11.2011. Heard Shri Gagan Deo Yadav, learned counsel for the petitioner, Shri Manoj Kuamr Yadav, learned A.C. to G.P.21, who appears on behalf of respondent nos.1 to 7 and Shri Satendra Jha, learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent no.8/Accountant General. The petitioner, who retired on 31.8.2008 as A.N.M. from Primary Health Centre, Khajauli in the district of Madhubani, has prayed for directing the respondents to fix final pension and gratuity and pay the same. It was submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that provisional pension was sanctioned in 2010 itself, but even then, she is not getting 2 provisional pension. In view of the fact that petitioner retired long back on 31.8.2008 and till date her retiral dues have not been finalized, the court is of the opinion that the writ petition can be disposed of directing the respondents to take all steps so that sanction order for final pension and gratuity must be issued within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. After receipt of the sanction order from the State authority, the respondent no.8/Accountant General shall issue authorization within four weeks. Thereafter, all the concerned including Treasury Officer are required to transmit the amount as per authorization within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of the authorization from the Accountant General. It goes without saying that all admitted retiral dues to the petitioner must be paid within aforesaid time. The writ petition stands allowed. N.H./ ( Rakesh Kumar,J.)
