SHRI.JOHNSON P.JOHN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11/11/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J. ================== W.P(C).No. 33192 of 2008 ================== Dated this the 11th day of November, 2008 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is a retired employee of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation. Her grievance is that her provident fund and staff welfare fund amounts as also the arrears of pay revision and leave surrender salary have not been paid to her. According to her, although, for DCRG and commuted value of pension, she has to stand in the queue in accordance with the date of priority of her retirement, she is entitled to payment of provident fund and staff welfare fund amounts immediately on retirement. Regarding the claim for arrears of pay revision amounts the petitioner relies on Ext.P2 judgment of the Division Bench. 2. I have heard the learned Standing Counsel appearing for the KSRTC also. 3. In so far as the provident fund and staff welfare fund amounts are concerned, this Court has been consistently directing the Corporation to pay the same within a stipulated period. Accordingly, there would be a direction to the respondent w.p.c.33192/08 2 to pay to the petitioner the provident fund and staff welfare fund amounts due to the petitioner within one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment. As far as other claims are concerned, the petitioner has already invoked the jurisdiction of the respondent by filing Ext.P3. The respondent shall consider and pass orders on Ext.P3 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this judgment. The petitioner may rely on Ext.P2 or any other material in support of her case at the time of hearing, for enabling which the petitioner shall be afforded an opportunity of being heard. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge w.p.c.33192/08 3
