JUDGMENT 1.This is a writ petition filed in the year 1998 seeking a direction to the Government to grant minimum pension to the petitioner. He had only 7 years 4 months and 56 days of qualifying service and therefore, was not entitled to minimum pension. He had also rendered certain part- time service and giving due credit, the qualifying service comes to 8 years 4 months and 17 days. It is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that pending the writ petition, on his request, the petitioner was granted ex- gratia pension. This is recorded. I do not find any ground OP22303/1998 -: 2 :- to issue any further orders in favour of the petitioner, who has already been granted ex-gratia pension which he has received. The writ petition is accordingly closed. THOTTATHIL B. RADHAKRISHNAN, JUDGE. Sha/- OP22303/1998 -: 3 :- THOTTATHIL B.
