This writ petition has been filed mainly with a prayer to issue a direction commanding the respondents to consider Ext.P4 in the light of Ext.P3 and to grant all service benefits to the petitioner including payment of arrears and such other benefits including promotion. With respect to the claim for promotion no specific averment has been made in this writ petition as to whether he had been overlooked in the matter of promotion and who are the juniors who got promotion disregarding his seniority. When this matter is taken up for consideration today the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the said issue of promotion may be kept open to be WP(C).No.20508/2011-K. 2 agitated in appropriate proceedings. 2.

As regards the claim of the petitioner for arrears of pay, in the statement filed on behalf of the respondents it is stated that the total amount payable to the petitioner on this count was quantified as Rs.2,73,027.00. After deducting the liability and adjusting the excess subsisting allowance and EPF contribution, the balance amount payable to the petitioner is Rs.1,82,386.00 according to the petitioner and effecting the said payment Cheque No.051783 dated 16.8.2011 was drawn in the petitioner's name and it was sent to the petitioner. This is recorded. In case the petitioner is having any grievance with respect to the fixation of liability or any other grievance against the deduction effected after quantifying the amount payable as Rs.2,73,027.00, the petitioner may WP(C).No.20508/2011-K. 3 take up such issues, if advised, in appropriate proceedings. With the above liberties, this writ petition is closed. C.T.RAVIKUMAR, (Judge) Kvs/-
