By consent of all the parties, the main writ petition itself is taken up for final hearing and disposal. 3. The petitioner has come up with the present writ petition for issuance of a Writ of Mandamus to direct the first respondent to disburse the arrear salary and other terminal benefit amount of Rs.7,88,754/- with eligible interest by considering the representation made by the petitioner dated 01.04.2011. 4. The case of the petitioner is that he was appointed as Secretary in the third respondent Agriculture Co- operative Society on 23.10.1975. While he was working as Secretary, the respondent did not pay his salary since May 2007 till his retirement on 30.04.2009. Seeking to disburse the salary arrears, raised D.A. amount, gratuity amount and leave salary, the petitioner has already given a representation dated 01.04.2011 to the first respondent and the same is pending. Hence, the petitioner has filed this writ petition. 5. Considering the limited prayer that has been sought for by the writ petitioner in this petition, I am of the considered opinion that it would be suffice to direct the first respondent to consider the claim of the petitioner as put forth in his representation dated 01.04.2011 and pass appropriate orders on merits and in accordance with law, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. 6. With the above direction, this writ petition is disposed of. However, there will be no order as to costs. Sd/- Assistant Registrar(Records) /True Copy/ Sub-Assistant Registrar To: 1.
