SIRI JAGAN, J. ---------------------------------- W.P.(C)NO.12080 OF 2007 ------------------------------------ DATED THIS THE 9th DAY OF APRIL, 2007 JUDGMENT The petitioner is a member of the Employees Provident Fund Scheme. Contributions have been deducted from his salary by his employer up to 1983 when he resigned from the employment and went abroad in search of another job. Application for closure of Provident Fund account was submitted in 1983 itself. Despite several communications to the employer and to the 1st respondent, the petitioner is yet to get his Provident Fund amounts. Therefore the petitioner filed Ext.P2 representation on 7.1.07 and the petitioner seeks a direction to the respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P2 expeditiously. 2. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as also the learned standing counsel appearing for the Provident Fund Organisation. In the facts and circumstances of the case, there would be a direction to the respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P2 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of as above. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE Acd
