IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 9842 of 2009 DATE OF DECISION : 08.07.2009 Prem Singh .... PETITIONER Versus Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam Limited and others ..... RESPONDENTS CORAM :- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Mr. Jagbir Malik, Advocate, for the petitioner. * * * SATISH KUMAR MITTAL , J. ( Oral ) The petitioner retired from Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam Limited as Junior Engineer (F) on 30.4.2004, on attaining the age of superannuation. At the time of retirement, an amount of Rs. 2,76,941/- was deducted from the retiral benefits of the petitioner on account of shortage of oil and breakage of damaged transformers. Now after more than five years, the instant petition has been filed by the petitioner alleging that the said deduction was wrongly made, as before making deduction on that account, he was not provided an opportunity of hearing. In view of the fact that the aforesaid amount was deducted from the retiral benefits of the petitioner long time back, I am not inclined to CWP No. 9842 of 2009 -2- entertain the instant petition. Dismissed. However, it will be open to the petitioner to avail his civil remedy, if available in accordance with law. July 08, 2009 ( SATISH KUMAR MITTAL ) ndj JUDGE
