Respondents ----------- 6. 2.3.2009. The writ application was filed by the petitioner claiming payment of retiral benefits like C.P.F., gratuity, encashment of earned leave, due salary etc. Two counter affidavits thereafter have come to be filed by the respondents where they have taken a stand that no pension is payable to the employees of the Bihar State Board of Religious Trust, however, the details of the claims have been indicated in paragraph 6 of the counter affidavit, which are due salary for various periods including revised pay- scales of 4th and 5th pay revision and the L.I.C. deductions. All this has added up to a sum of Rs.7,67, 946.00 out of the same a sum of Rs.1,39,587.00 has been paid to the petitioner. The balance amount has not been paid due to paucity of funds. In reply to the counter affidavit petitioner had made out a list of other claims or similar claims in his rejoinder, details of which are given in paragraph 4. A statement has been made on behalf of the respondent Bihar State Board of Religious Trust that the Board has no income of its own and they are meeting the obligation and the liability from allocation of grants made by the State Government from time to time. They do not deny their liability to pay to the present petitioner some of the heads - 2 - which have already been indicated in the earlier counter affidavit. Keeping the above in mind that they are still outstanding dues against the claim of the petitioner, the writ application is disposed of with a direction upon the Administrator, Bihar State Board of Religious Trust that he shall take steps for release of the balance amount in favour of the petitioner within a period of six months from the date of communication/production of a copy of this order. If after payment any other grievance remains, petitioner will have the liberty to bring it to the notice of the Administrator. This writ application is disposed of with above direction.
