IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2559 of 2009 NAWAL KISHORE SHARMA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 26.2.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the respondent State of Bihar as also the Accountant General. The grievance of the petitioner as with regard to non-payment of his retirement dues in a period of last six years approximately to say the least is really appalling. Whatever amount was admitted and payable to the petitioner must have been paid and therefore, this Court in the peculiar facts of this case would direct the Engineer-in-Chief of Water Resources Department, Government of Bihar, to himself look into the grievance of the petitioner and pass an appropriate order within a period of one month from the date of receipt/ production of a copy of this order directing for payment of admitted amount of pension, gratuity, leave encashment and the provident fund, if not already paid. The petitioner in order to expedite the matter may file a fresh representation before the Engineer-in-Chief setting out the grounds 2 and also by enclosing documents in support of his claim for payment of retirement benefit, whereafter the Engineer-in-Chief would be required to pass the order within a period of one month and whatever order for payment is made by the Engineer-in-Chief must be made by the concerned authority in next 15 days. This application, accordingly, stands disposed of. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
