When the case was called out, it was submitted by Shri Vijay Kumar Verma, learned counsel appearing on behalf of all the respondents/Bihar State Electricity Board that during the pendency of the writ petition, all the retiral dues of the petitioner have already been paid. Shri Shashi Bhushan Singh, learned counsel for the petitioner claims interest on delayed payment. It was submitted that it is true that payment has been made, but payment was made at belated stage and, accordingly, the petitioner is entitled to get interest on delayed payment. In absence of any specific pleading on the point, it 2 is difficult for this Court to pass specific order regarding payment of interest on delayed payment. However, court is of the opinion that petitioner is entitled to get interest on delayed payment. The petitioner may file detail representation before respondent no.2/General Manager-cum-Chief Engineer, PESU, Patna. If such representation is filed, respondent no.2 is directed to examine the same and pass appropriate order for payment of interest within a period of four months from the date of filing of such representation. With above observation and direction, the writ petition stands disposed of. N.H./ ( Rakesh Kumar,J.)
