IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.4094 of 2006 SAROJ SRIVASTAV Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 14.5.2010. Mrs. Anita Kumari Singh for the petitioner and Mr. Bhaskar Shankar, Assisting Counsel to G.P.12 are present. The only issue raised in the writ petition is regarding non-payment of the provident fund amount in respect of the late husband of the petitioner who superannuated from the post of Head Clerk with effect from 31.3.1998 and expired on 13.6.2004. It so appears that neither the husband of the petitioner took any step for filling up the withdrawal form nor the present petitioner took any step and in this back-ground a letter was written by the District Superintendent of Education, Madhepura requesting the petitioner to fill up the claim form enabling the said authority to process the provident fund claim of the husband of the petitioner. There is no rejoinder to the counter affidavit as to wheteher any steps were taken by the present petitioner for filling up the claim form. In the circumstances, no purpose would be 2 served in keeping the writ petition pending and the same is disposed of with a direction to the petitioner to present herself before the District Superintendent of Education, Madhepura, who would extend all possible cooperation to the petitioner in getting the claim form filled up for payment of provident fund and whereafter, necessary steps for payment of the provident fund amount to the petitioner together with admissible interest thereon would be taken. The said exercise would be completed within a period of three months from the date on which the petitioner would present herself before the District Superintendent of Education, Madhepura along with a copy of this order. ahk (Jyoti Saran, J.)
