He was relieved from service on his option for voluntary retirement scheme being accepted by the respondents. Petitioner is aggrieved that his pensionery claim is yet to be accepted by the respondents. Apparently the application preferred by the petitioner was found to be in the wrong form, and thereupon instruction was given by the first respondent to rectify the mistake. Pursuant to Ext.P1, petitioner has submitted a fresh application in the proper form and this has been re-submitted by the third respondent to the second respondent, who is the competent authority to take a decision in that regard. 2. I have heard the learned Standing counsel for the respondents also. Taking note of the averments in the writ petition as also Exts.P1 and P2, Writ petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to pass final orders as W.P.(C).38286/2007 2 regards the petitioner’s pensionery claim, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, which shall be produced by the petitioner along with a copy of the writ petition before the second and third respondents separately.
