Petitioner is approaching this Court after more than 20 years. Be that as it may, petitioner is directed to submit all papers once again within one month from today. On the papers being submitted to the Accounts Officer, Water Resources Department, Sinchai Bhawan, Patna, he would forward it to the competent authority immediately and ensure that final pension is determined and arrears of pension and other retrial dues are paid to the petitioner within a period of six months thereafter. It would be the responsibility of the Accounts Officer (respondent No 4) aforesaid to ensure timely compliance of this Court’s order. With this observation, this writ petition stands disposed of.
