Ex. Pet.(T) No.4 of 2009 11.9.2009 Present: Mr. M. C. Verma, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Vivek Thakur, Addl. Advocate General with Mr. J. S. Rana,Astt. Advocate General for the respondents/State. Ex. Pet.(T) No.4 of 2009 In Petition No. OA-663 of 2006, titled as Raj Kumar versus State of H.P. and others the erstwhile Himachal Pradesh Administrative Tribunal, Shimla, in terms of order dated 30.4.2008 directed the respondents to release the remaining balance amount of DCRG as also pay interest w.e.f. 1.8.2004 @ 9%. Cheque of Rs. 86,822/- dated 3.6.2006 was sent to the petitioner vide Registered letter Ext. R-V which was refused by him. From the record it cannot be shown as to why he did not accept the letter containing the cheque. Even though in the petition it has been averred that part payment was not acceptable to the petitioner but however this fact is not borne out from any correspondence placed on record by him. The registered AD letter sent by the respondents was received back with a report that the addressee refused to accept the same. Further the Tribunal also did not decide the question of payment of interest on the part payment already sent to the petitioner. Other than the component of interest on the said amount the entire payment stands released to the petitioner. The respondent/state had taken action in discharging its -2- statutory duty of remitting the amount of the retiremental benefits to the petitioner hence it cannot be said that the petitioner is entitled to any interest on the sum of Rs. 86,822/-. For the aforesaid reasons no further amount remains to be released to the petitioner and the execution petition is ordered to be disposed of. (Sanjay Karol), Judge. September 11, 2009 (PK)
