THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 31/03/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. Siri Jagan, J. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= W. P (C) No. 10506 of 2009 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 31st March, 2009. J U D G M E N T The petitioner retired from the service of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation on 30-9-2008. During the period of his service, he met with an accident consequent to which he was given light duty. Thereafter, after regaining his health, he filed a representation to re- post him as special grade conductor as before. Although the petitioner challenged the same, this Court directed the Corporation to grant increments in the lower post and to re-post him with effect from 15-2-2008. The petitioner's grievance now is that he is not being paid his increments from 1-6-2000 to 2008 in the lower post and monthly pension. The petitioner has filed Ext. P7 representation in this regard. For the present, the petitioner would be satisfied with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext. P7 expeditiously. Of course, the petitioner would contend that the petitioner should be paid his monthly pension at least from next month onwards. 2. I have heard the learned standing counsel appearing for the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation also. In the facts and circumstances of the case, I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext. P7 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. However, the petitioner shall be paid his monthly pension from April, 2009 onwards. S. Siri Jagan, Judge. Tds/
