It has further been stated that no departmental proceeding or criminal proceeding had ever been initiated or pending against him at the time of his retirement. In view of the fact as well as statement made in paragraph-8 of the writ petition, the court is of the opinion that writ petition can be allowed at this stage directing the respondents, particularly respondent no.3 to take all steps so that the petitioner may start to get full pension and all the retiral dues of the petitioner must be paid within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. It goes without saying that petitioner shall be entitled to get admissible statutory interest on delayed payment. The writ petition stands allowed. N.H./ ( Rakesh Kumar,J.)
