Having regard to the facts that the counter was filed, the matter was ready for hearing, and the petitioner has retired from service in the last week of May, 2006, no interim direction was granted by the Tribunal. The main grievance of the petitioner is that since the question involved is squarely covered by a judgment of the Apex Court in P.V.Mahadevan vs. M.D.Tamil Nadu Housing Board[1], the matter could have been taken up and interim direction could have been granted. Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner. The petitioner can as well move appropriate application before the Tribunal itself seeking fixation of pensionary benefits, and to hear the OA expeditiously. We do not find any merits in the Writ Petition. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, dismissed. No costs. ---------------------------------- --- (B.Prakash Rao, J) 28th July, 2006 ------------------------------------- (Ramesh Ranganathan, J) LUR [1] SLR 2005(5) page 384
