Pleader no.17, who appears on behalf of Respondent nos.1 to 7 and learned counsel appearing on behalf of Respondent no.8/ Accountant General,Bihar,Patna. The petitioner, who retired on 30.06.2007 as Clerk from Primary Health Centre, Ballia in the district of Begusarai, had approached this Court in the year 2008 with a prayer to direct the Respondents to make payment of all the retiral dues. In this case, counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of Respondent nos.3 and 4, wherein it has been stated that steps are being taken for payment of the amount of leave encashment and for payment of pension to the petitioner, but since the service book of the petitioner was missing, it has not been done till date. Learned counsel for the 2 petitioner admits that except the amount of leave encashment and final pension, other retiral dues of the petitioner have already been paid .He is getting only provisional pension. In view of the facts and circumstances, particularly the fact that the petitioner retired long back in the year 2007, the Court is of the opinion that the writ petition can be disposed of at this stage directing the Respondents, particularly Respondent nos.3 and 4 to take all steps, so that sanction order in respect of leave encashment and final pension must be issued in favour of the petitioner within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. The Court expects that the Respondent no.8/ Accountant General, Bihar, Patna shall issue authorization within four weeks from the date of receipt of the sanction order from the State authority. Thereafter, Respondents are directed to take all steps, so that the amount in the light of authorization of the Accountant General, Bihar must be credited in the account of the petitioner without any delay. With above observation and direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. NKS/- ( Rakesh Kumar, J.)
