(Oral) CM No.13798 of 2011 Civil Misc. application is allowed as prayed for and the same is taken on record. CWP No.14961 of 1993 Ms.Sonu Chahal, Sr. Deputy Advocate General, Punjab on instructions from Mr. Kewal Singh, Superintendent, Office of Panchayat Samiti, Mahalpur, District Hoshiarpur states that on Civil Writ Petition No.14961 of 1993 (O&M) --2-- acceptance of the request for voluntary retirement made by the petitioner, all service benefits including pension would follow and be paid to the petitioner. In view of the above, the present writ petition has been rendered infructuous and is disposed of accordingly. Respondent No.2 is directed to expedite the payment of pension so that the petitioner could get the benefits within three months from the date of the receipt of a copy of this order. Since, there is a long delay in disbursing the pensionary benefits, it would be just and appropriate to order that the arrears of pension and other pensionary benefits would carry interest @ 6% till the date of payment.
