J U D G M E N T The writ petition is filed mainly with the following prayer :- “ Issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ or order directing the respondents to pay full salary and other service benefits to the petitioner while he was under suspension.” In case the charges have been dropped and the petitioner has been reinstated, there is no point in denying full salary for the period the petitioner was kept under suspension. It is also stated that the suspension period has been treated as duty for all purposes. Therefore, there will be a direction to the respondent to pay the entire service benefits, treating the period of suspension as duty for all purposes. The eligible amounts as above shall be disbursed within one month from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. The writ petition is disposed of as above.
