CORAM: SWATANTER KUMAR C.J. CORAM: SWATANTER KUMAR C.J. & S.R.SATHE J. & S.R.SATHE J. & S.R.SATHE J. 3rd April, 2007 3rd April, 2007 3rd April, 2007 P.C. P.C. P.C. . This is a petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India where the petitioners who claim to be heirs of deceased Laxman Malappa Jamkhandi pray that the salary and other service benefits which were due to the deceased after having rendered 22 years of service should be paid to them. The husband/father of the petitioners died on 20th October, 1998. Thereafter they had written a letter to the authorities to pay these amounts. However, the respondents did not pay any heed and compelled the petitioners to file the present writ petition. The relief with regard to the compassionate appointment is not pressed by the learned Counsel appearing for the petitioners. In regard to other reliefs we direct the respondents to pass appropriate orders in adherence to the principles of natural justice within a period of four weeks from today and communicate the order to the petitioners/their Counsel as well immediately thereafter. We make it clear that the plea of impersonation sought to be established by the respondents should be reexamined by the authorities in as much as the the husband of petitioner no.1 had served with the railways for a continuous period and no action disciplinary or otherwise was taken against him during his life time. Writ Petition is disposed of with the above directions, however, leaving the parties to bear their own cost. (SWATANTER KUMAR C.J.) (SWATANTER KUMAR C.J.) (SWATANTER KUMAR C.J.) (S.R.SATHE J.)
