According to him he was drawing pension on a monthly basis and that the pension is now being paid on an annual basis. It is stated that this has happened on account of the lapse on the part of the 4th respondent and therefore by Ext.P4 notice he has requested the 4th respondent to make monthly remittance in the 5th respondent Bank in order to enable the petitioner to draw pension on a monthly basis. The grievance is that even Ext.P4 notice remains unattended. 2. In the facts as above, the grievance of the petitioner will be redressed if a direction is issued to the 4th respondent to consider and take necessary action on Ext.P4. Therefore it is directed that the 4th respondent shall pass orders on Ext.P4. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 4 weeks from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. Writ Petition is disposed of as above. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a copy of this writ petition before the 4th respondent for compliance. (ANTONY DOMINIC) vi JUDGE WPC.No.10378 /2010 :2 :
