THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.23384 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioner, who was employed as a Driver in Atchampet Depot of A.P.S.R.T.C., was removed from service with effect from 31.05.2005. The challenge made by him to that order before the Labour Court did not materialize. His grievance is that his terminal benefits are not paid so far. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. Even if an employee is removed from service, certain benefits, such as gratuity, provident fund are to be extended. There cannot be any justification for withholding such amounts. In case, there exits any justification for withholding such amounts, the same need to be communicated. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to extend the benefits, to which the petitioner is otherwise entitled, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If for any reasons, he is not entitled, the same shall be communicated to the petitioner within that time. There shall be no order as to costs. ___________ 21.09.2010 JSU THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY Writ Petition No.23384 of 2010 Date: 21.09.2010 JSU
