A counter-affidavit was filed on behalf of the University on 07.12.2009 and in which categorical statements have been made that the entire retiral benefits to which the petitioner was entitled, has been paid to him. Although, rejoinder to the said affidavit has been filed on behalf of the petitioner today, but save and except assailing the non-counting of the service period from 15.11.1965 to 23.07.1967 a general rebuttal has been made that the statement is not correct. Having regard to the nature of the grievances which according to the petitioner has remained pending, this writ petition is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner if so advised, to raise all his pending grievances before the Registrar of the Vir Kuar Singh University within a period of four weeks from today including his non-counting of the service for the period from 2 15.11.1965 to 23.07.1967 with supportive documents and the Registrar shall consider the same and if the petitioner has been able to make his case for further payment of his retiral benefits and/or for counting of his service rendered for the period from 15.11.1965 to 23.07.1967, then the same should be added to his service period and his retiral dues should be recalculated and the arrears should be paid to him within a period of three months from the date of such refixation of recalculation. Needless to add that in case the Registrar of the University finds no merit in the claim of the petitioner, the same is to be rejected by a speaking and reasoned order to be passed within a period of three months from the date of receipt/production of such representation. This writ petition is disposed of with the directions aforesaid. U.K. (Jyoti Saran,J)
