The petitioner seeks out of turn payment of his pensionary benefits to meet the expenses of his daughter's marriage, which is fixed to be solemnised on 14.12.2008 as evident from Ext.P2 marriage invitation letter. 2. Having heard both sides, I feel that the petitioner deserves some partial relief. The writ petition is disposed of as follows. There will be a direction to the respondent to conduct an enquiry as to whether the claim of the petitioner is genuine. The enquiry should be concluded within two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. If the claim of the petitioner is found genuine, there will be a further direction to the respondent to disburse the amount due to the petitioner as DCRG, in accordance with law, within a period of three WPC.25916/08 : 2 : months from the date on which the enquiry is concluded. It is made clear that the amount due as DCRG need be paid only after providing for the liabilities of the petitioner to be discharged from out of the DCRG. If it is found that the entire amount due as DCRG or part of the DCRG cannot be paid in view of the liabilities, the respondent is directed to release the balance amount from out of the CVP. The respondent will make sure that the amount of payment should not exceed the value of the DCRG. Sd/- (K.M.JOSEPH, JUDGE) aks /TRUE COPY/ P.A.TO JUDGE
