WP(C).NO.37347 OF 2009 ............................................ DATED THIS THE 8TH DAY OF JANUARY, 2010 JUDGMENT The complaint of the petitioner is that though he had retired as a Forester on 30.9.2009, after a long period of 27 years of unblemished service, he has not been granted his DCRG and other retiral benefits. The petitioner is facing disciplinary action on the allegations of certain irregularities in the discharge of his official duties. Ext.P6 show cause notice is seen to have been issued to him in this regard after fixing an amount of Rs.1,03,399/- as his liability. The petitioner wants to file a reply to Ext.P6. The petitioner may do so at the earliest. Thereafter, the second respondent would have to consider and pass final orders on Ext.P6, which has not been done. 2. In the above circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P6, after considering any objections that may be submitted by the petitioner, which he may do so, within a week. Such final orders as stipulated above shall be passed within a period of six weeks from the Wpc 37347/09 2 date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JUDGE lgk
