RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, J. --------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.30353 OF 2011 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 15th day of November, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioner herein is a pensioner who retired from service in the year 1999 as Head of the Department of Hindi from the Bishop Moore College, Mavelikkara. The grievance raised by the petitioner herein is that there are anomalies in counting the total period of service for the purpose of grant of pension and other benefits. The petitioner seeks for a direction to reckon her qualifying service as 30 years instead of 29 years in the service of the College. 2. It is explained in the writ petition that the petitioner had been moving various authorities for getting the above relief but without any result. Reference has been made about Ext.P3 representation followed by Ext.P4 reminder. As response never came in the matter, the petitioner has forwarded another representation through registered post to the Government, a copy of which has been produced as Ext.P5. W.P.(C) No.30353/2011 2 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner's case requires detailed consideration and so far none of the authorities have considered the same. I am not going into the merits of the matter since it is upto the Government to consider the matter in accordance with law. 4. Learned Government Pleader points out that the representation Ext.P5 is only dated 03.11.2011. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that it is in continuation of the earlier representation and there is no delay in the matter. There will be a direction to the Government to consider Ext.P5 and pass appropriate orders, with notice to the petitioner, within a period of six months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner will forward a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition for compliance. This writ petition is disposed of as above. T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE smp
