The Registrar, Patna University, Patna. …………. Respondents. ----------- 3. 26-07-2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The prayer of the petitioner in this writ petition is with regard to payment of his all legitimate dues of service period as also retirement benefit. Mr. Ajay Kumar Sinha, learned counsel appearing on behalf of Patna University has informed this court that during the pendency of this writ application such payment has already been made to the extent which was admissible and permissible on different heads. He has also submitted that there was a basic dispute with regard to entitlement of the petitioner under U.G.C. Pay Scale. In the opinion of this court when the claim of the petitioner is itself in dispute on account of fixation of her pay in U.G.C. Pay Scale and therefore, it cannot be said that the prayer made by the petitioner in this writ application is with regard to admitted claim. That being so this court would give liberty to the 2 petitioner to file a self contained representation to the Registrar of the Patna University, who will verify the claim of the petitioner with regard to subsisting grievance relating to payment of salary and emoluments in U.G.C. Pay Scale as also retirement benefits and in case the same is raised by the petitioner by filing a representation along with the copy of this order, the Registrar of the University will verify such claim and pass a reasonable order within a period of six months from the date of filing of the aforesaid representation along with a copy of this order. Let it be made clear that this court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of the claim of the petitioner and therefore it would be open for the Registrar of the University to pass final order strictly in accordance with law. With the aforementioned observations/ directions this writ application is disposed of. Sujit (Mihir Kumar Jha, J)
