Learned counsel representing the Zila Parishad, Gaya informs the Court that during the pendency of the writ application the respondent authorities have managed to clear the arrears of salary till June, 2005. Since the petitioner retired in 2004 itself that is not the issue left. In fact, the only payment left to the petitioner is gratuity amount and leave encashment which has not been paid due to paucity of fund and the respondents are aware of the responsibility. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that there is yet another head to which he is entitled to some payment and that is under the head of Bonus which has never paid to the employees. Since the petitioner has retired way back in the year, 2004, therefore the Court expects that some efforts be made on the part of the respondents to even meet the balance payment of the retired employees. In this regard the Court expects that the - 2 - retiral dues of the petitioner and other dues, if any, will be settled within four months from the date of communication or production of a copy of this order. This writ application is disposed of with the above direction. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi,J.)
