The petitioner, who retired long back on 31.7.2002 as Revenue Karmchari from Circle Office, Pirpainti in the district of Bhagalpur, has prayed for directing the respondents to pay amount of G.P.F. deducted from 1962 to 1982, Dearness allowance from January, 2002 to July,2002, new pay scale and A.C.P. benefits on the basis of notification dated 23.6.2003. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner has also filed representation before respondent no.2 for the relief sought for in the present writ petition. However, till date, neither any 2 decision has been taken on his representation nor grievances of the petitioner have been redressed by the respondents. In view of the facts and circumstances, particularly the fact that the petitioner retired in the year 2002, the court is of the opinion that writ petition can be disposed of at this stage directing respondent no.2 to make payment of amount of G.P.F. along with admissible statutory interest as claimed by the petitioner within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. Regarding other relief, petitioner is granted liberty to file a fresh representation before respondent no.2 within a period of six weeks from today. If such representation is filed, respondent no.2 is required to examine the same and pass appropriate order in accordance with law within a period of two months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. If respondent no.2 considers the claim of the petitioner as genuine, he is required to pass order for payment within 3 aforesaid time. Even in case of refusal, respondent no.2 is required to pass a speaking order and communicate the same to the petitioner within two months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. With above observation and direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. N.H./ ( Rakesh Kumar,J.)
