Petitioner retired from service on 31-03-2005 as Principal from Government Higher Secondary School, Cherthala South. By Exts.P1 and P2 DCRG was sanctioned on 05-04-2005. But, because of non-receipt of NLC, DCRG was not paid. 2. Today, when the matter came up for consideration, learned Government Pleader on instructions submits that second respondent has already issued the NLC on 08-02-2007. In the light of the fact that NLC is issued, there will be direction to the third respondent to disburse the amount due to the petitioner within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. I leave open the claim based on interest. Writ petition is disposed of as above. (K.M.JOSEPH,JUDGE) sv. 2 P.R.RAMAN, J. O.P.No.OF 2000 J U D G M E N T 3 30th May, 2006
