In this writ petition he seeks out of turn payment of his retirement benefits in accordance with the judgment of the Division Bench of this Court for discharging debts from him to the Punnathala Co-operative Bank, Kollam, as per a loan taken by the petitioner for building a house. A Division Bench of this Court has recently held that for discharging debts, out of turn payment overlooking the priority of retirement cannot be permitted. That being so, I cannot entertain the prayer of the petitioner and accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed. This is without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to approach the respondents for appropriate reliefs. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge
