It appears that, subsequent to filing of the writ application the salary of the petitioner was fixed in the revised UGC scale and arrears were also paid. Accordingly, his pension was also revised and the petitioner is being paid his pension in the revised scale. Learned counsel for the petitioner points out the pleading made in paragraph 10 of the counter affidavit and submits that the cheque which was ready in 2004 towards payment of final GPF of the petitioner may have lapsed 2 and, therefore, the University may be directed to issue a fresh cheque if it has not been received and encashed by petitioner. He submits that he has no instruction from the petitioner as to whether subsequent to that the amount of final GPF as well as other dues under different heads have been paid to the petitioner or not. In the circumstances, this writ application is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to verify from his records with regard to his remaining dues with the University and submit a consolidated claim to the University, if necessary. As and when such a claim is put up before the University by the petitioner, the University shall consider the same and release all remaining admissible dues to the petitioner within three months from the date of receipt of such a claim. With the above observations and directions, this writ application is disposed of. Arvind/ (J. N. Singh, J.)
