Bihar University, Muzaffarpur. The writ petition was initially filed with a prayer to direct the Respondents to pay all the retiral dues of the petitioner. Earlier , a counter affidavit was filed on behalf of Respondent nos. 2 to 5 in the year 2008 and it was indicated that the University had considered the claim and it was found that the petitioner was entitled to Rs.4,66,990/-. However, a requisition was sent to the State authority for allocation of fund. While filing supplementary counter affidavit, Respondent nos. 2 to 5 have asserted that now payment has already been made to the petitioner. It has been clarified that though the claim of the petitioner was earlier calculated to the tune of Rs.4,66,990/-, but on scrutiny the amount has been enhanced and total amount of Rs.6,26,067/- has already 2 been paid to the petitioner. No rejoinder was filed to the counter affidavit filed on behalf of Respondent nos. 2 to 5 in the year 2008 and, as such, in view of the stand taken in the supplementary counter affidavit, which indicates that enhanced amount of Rs.6,26,067/- has already been paid to the petitioner, there is no need to keep the matter further pending. The writ petition stands disposed of. NKS/- ( Rakesh Kumar, J.)
