DATE OF DECISION: 12.2.2009 Kishore Chand Girdhar ...Petitioner VERSUS State of Punjab & Others …Respondents CORAM HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE PERMOD KOHLI PRESENT: Mr.N.K.Manchanda, Advocate for the petitioner Mr.BS Chahal, DAG, Punjab Permod Kohli, J. (Oral) Notice of motion. On the asking of this Court, Mr.B.S.Chahal, DAG, Punjab accepts notice on behalf of the respondents-State. Keeping in view the nature of relief claimed, this petition is disposed of at motion stage. The petitioner retired from the government service on 31.1.1991. In the month of May, 2008, the petitioner suffered some injury and was treated firstly at Adesh Hospital and Research Centre Pvt. Ltd. Muktsar, then at H.K.L. Hospital, Guruhar Sahai and lastly at Guru Teg Bahadur Sahib (C ) Hospital. The petitioner submitted the bills incurred on account of his treatment for reimbursement in terms of the government policy. The CWP NO.2213 OF 2009 :2: petitioner has also made a representation dated 10.1.2009 (Annexure P-4). The petitioner immediately rushed to this court, without even awaiting for the consideration of the representation. Although apparently, this petition seems to be premature, however, in the interest of justice, I direct the respondents to take decision on the representation of the petitioner within a period of four months from the date a certified copy of this order is served upon competent authority and if the amount is found payable, the same may be released within one month thereafter. In the event the claim of the petitioner is to be rejected, it shall be by a reasoned and speaking order. (PERMOD KOHLI) JUDGE 12.2.2009 MFK
