No counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the State in any of the above noted writ applications. The grievance in all the writ applications is relating to the payment of retiral dues/death-cum-retiral dues/arrears of difference of salary for the period 01.01.1971 to 31.03.1973 depending upon the date of joining/ amount in the suspense account/provident fund dues for the period prior to November, 1976. Learned counsel for the petitioners submit that on account of not making the due payment which are otherwise admissible to them the petitioners are facing serious financial hardship. Learned counsel appearing for the respondent-State on the other hand submits that the claims of the petitioners need to be verified from the record. In the above circumstances, learned counsels for the petitioners submits that for expeditious settlement of their respective claims as highlighted in their respective writ application, petitioners propose to file separate representations before the concerned District Superintendent of Education/ District Education Officer with copy of the same to the Director Primary/Secondary Education as also the Accountant General, Bihar, Patna. In view of the above, in case such separate - 4 - representations stating distinctly the details of unpaid claims are filed by the petitioners within a period of four weeks from today along with the certified copy of the present order as also the copy of the relevant documents, if any, in support of the claims, the grievances of the petitioners raised in their respective representations shall be considered in accordance with law expeditiously preferably within a period of four months on receipt of such representation. Upon consideration, the necessary sanction be issued with regard to payment of the retiral dues so that the admitted dues could be paid with interest permissible under the rules for the delay caused on the part of the official for settling the dues. However, upon consideration if any of the claim or part of the claims are not being paid the same shall be informed to the petitioner with reasons thereof. It goes without saying that the payments made to the concerned petitioner would be made along with a forwarding letter indicating the details of such payment so as to enable the concerned petitioner to know what payment has been made under which head. All the above writ applications stand disposed of with the above observations/directions. Manish/- ( Shailesh Kumar Sinha,J.)
