This factual position obtaining is not disputed either by the standing counsel who has entered appearance on behalf of the respondent also. 3.

Leaving it open to WP(C) 1513708 2 the respondents to continue the recovery from other sources as is permissible in law, the writ petition is disposed of. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE mt/-
