THE SECRETARY, KERALA STATE HOUSING BOARD, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM. MR.A.JAYASANKAR, SC FOR R1 THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 02/11/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------ WP(C) No.28097 of 2009 -------------------------- Dated, this the 2nd day of November, 2009 ------------------------------ J U D G M E N T The petitioner is a retired employee of the Housing Board. His grievance is that his terminal benefits have not been released. The reason apparently is the pendency of the proceedings initiated against the petitioner under Rule 59(b) of Part - III KSR. Ext.P3 is a notice issued, and on its receipt, the petitioner has filed Ext.P4 explanation. According to the petitioner, the proceedings have not been finalised. This apparently is the reason for not releasing full terminal benefits to the petitioner. 2. Therefore, I dispose of this writ petition directing the respondents to finalise the proceedings initiated by Ext.P3, taking into account Ext.P4. This shall be done with notice to the petitioner as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within eight weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. 3. Once the proceedings are finalised, consequential orders releasing the terminal benefits to the petitioner shall be passed WP(C) No.28097/2009 -2- without any further delay in the matter. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the 1st respondent for compliance. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
