In the High Court of Judicature at Patna CWJC No.1974 of 2005 Md. Ainul Haque Vrs. The State of Bihar & Ors. **** /5/ 09.07.2008 Heard the counsel for the petitioner and the State. 2. Counter affidavit and supplementary counter affidavits have been filed on behalf of the State. Only grievance of the petitioner is with regard to non-payment of salary for the period from January, 1996, to October, 1996, i.e., for ten months. It is not disputed even by the petitioner that all other dues, such as, pension, G.P.F., leave encashment, had already been paid to him after his retirement. The period for which the petitioner has come before this Court for payment of salary is said to be the period in which the petitioner was absconding on account of institution of a criminal case against him. However, this has been denied by the petitioner stating that he was working during this period. In the last counter affidavit, it has been stated that for ten months period the petitioner remained absent, he could not have been paid his salary because all admissible leave had already been availed by the petitioner. This ten months could have been treated as extra ordinary leave and for that period he is not entitled for any salary. 3. Considering this fact, I do not find that any case is made out by the petitioner. 4. This application is dismissed. Cp:2/S.A. ( Mridula Mishra, J. )
