It is submitted on behalf of respondents that by now the amount must have been paid to the credit of the petitioner. Learned counsel for the petitioner states that he has no instructions in the matter. Be that as it may, on the statement made on affidavit and at the Bar, the writ petition is being disposed of and it is hoped that if the payment has not already been credited to the account of the petitioner, it would be done in this week itself. The petitioner’s further grievance is that the College has sent a recommendation for a higher amount. The Auditors have unauthorisedly reduced the same without seeking any clarification from 2 the petitioner in respect thereof. Petitioner would be at a liberty to file a representation before the Finance Controller of the University who would examine the correctness of the deduction of the same and pass appropriate order and communicate the order to the petitioner. With this liberty, this writ petition stands disposed of. M.E.H./ (Navaniti Prasad Singh)
