Present : Ms.Jagdeep Bains, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) Notice of motion. Mr.H.S.Brar, Additional Advocate General, Punjab, accepts noticed on behalf of the respondents. In view of the nature of the order which I propose to pass, there is no need to seek any counter-reply from the respondents at this stage. The petitioner who retired as Field Officer from the respondent-Markfed w.e.f. 30.6.3005, is aggrieved by the fact that the respondents have yet not released all the retiral dues admissible to him, especially the leave encashment, ex-gratia and some security amount etc. C.W.P.No .13262 of 2010 2 All the pending claims have been duly mentioned by the petitioner in his legal notice dated 1.6.2009 (Annexure P-9), which too does not appear to have been responded so far. In these circumstances and considering the nature of relief sought by the petitioner, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to take notice of the above- mentioned legal notice served on behalf of the petitioner and dispose of his pending claims by passing a speaking order, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. The respondents are also directed to release the due payments to the petitioner within the stipulated period, failing which the petitioner shall be entitled to interest @ 7% per month on delayed payments. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. July 29, 2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
