For the Respondents :- Diwakar Yadav, AC to AAG-6. ----------- 2 10.03.2010 Heard Mr. Dhananjay Kumar Singh, learned counsel for the appellant and Mr. Diwakar Yadav, learned 2 Assistant Counsel to learned A.A.G.6 for the State. In this intra-court appeal, the correctness of the order dated 2.7.2009 passed by the learned single Judge in C.W.J.C. No. 10129 of 2008 is called in question. The grievance of the petitioner-appellant relates to non-settlement of retiral dues as well as provident fund dues.. The learned single Judge has declined to interfere as the service book was not properly filed before him. Having heard learned counsel for the parties, we are inclined to direct that the respondent Secretary, Rural Development Department shall take a decision with regard to the retiral dues and the Commissioner, Provident Fund, Patna shall take a decision with regard to the provident fund dues. The entire exercise in both the aspects shall be completed within a period of four months from the date of receipt of the order passed today. We may hasten to add that we have not expressed any opinion on the merits of the case. With the aforementioned modification in the order of the learned single Judge, the appeal stands 3 disposed of. Let a free copy of the this order be handed over to Mr. Diwakar Yadav, learned A.C. to A.A.G.6, who would intimate the competent authority of the State as well as the Provident Fund Commissioner to do the needful in the matter.
