The petitioner, who retired on 31.3.2010 as Regional Maleria Officer, Darbhanga, has prayed for directing the respondents to pay all her retiral dues. It was submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that though the petitioner retired in the month of March,2010, till date, nothing has been paid by the respondents. The present writ petition was filed on 24.8.2011. 2 Keeping in view the fact that petitioner retired long back in the month of March,2010 as well as the fact as stated in the supplementary affidavit that no proceeding was pending against the petitioner, the court is of the opinion that direction can be issued to the respondents to take all steps for clearing all the retiral dues of the petitioner without any delay. Respondents/State are directed to take all steps to issue authorization in respect of full pension, gratuity, leave encashment etc. within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. Thereafter, respondent no.9/Accountant General, Bihar is required to issue authorization within four weeks. The respondent no.8/Provident Fund Officer, Darbhanga is directed to make payment of the amount of G.P.F. along with admissible statutory interest to the petitioner within eight weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. It is made clear that if on the date of retirement, there was a proceeding, then 3 this order will not be given effect to. It goes without saying that the petitioner shall be entitled to get admissible statutory interest. With above observation and direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. N.H./ ( Rakesh Kumar,J.)
