1 S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 2283/2008. (DURGA SONI VS. STATE & OTHERS) DATE OF ORDER : 27.08.2008. HON'BLE MR. GOVIND MATHUR, J. Mr. Sandeep Shah for the petitioner. Mr. B.L. Bhati for the respondents. By this petition for writ, a direction is sought by the petitioner to finalize her pension case and also to make the payment of retiral benefits including pension, gratuity, General Provident Fund and commuted value of pension. This Court on 09.04.2008, while issuing notice to the respondents instructed Shri B.L. Bhati, learned Standing Counsel for Department of Education to accept notice and to seek necessary instructions from the authority competent. It appears that due to good efforts made by learned counsel for the Department, the entire relief claimed by the petitioner in Clause (i) of the prayer clause has been granted. It is stated by learned counsel for the petitioner that due to delay in payment of pensionary benefits, an interest in a tune of 18% per annum should be awarded. 2 Looking to the peculiar facts and the circumstances of the case, specially in the circumstances that immediately after acceptance of the notice, the pensionary benefits have been decided by the Government of Rajasthan and all those have been paid to the petitioner, I consider it appropriate to direct the respondents that, if the petitioner is entitled for any interest on delayed payment of her dues by the force of statute, then that be considered and given, if she claim the same by way of submitting a representation. The petition for writ is disposed of accordingly. (GOVIND MATHUR)J. Anil/
