ANTONY DOMINIC, J. --------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) 33273 OF 2007 --------------------------------------------------- Dated: December 7, 2007 JUDGMENT The petitioner who is in receipt of freedom fighter's pension has approached this court seeking the benefit of revision of pension which is ordered by the respondents. According to the petitioner, when he claimed the benefit, details were called for by the respondents by issuing Ext.P3 and they were furnished by Ext.P4. 2. The only relief sought for in this writ petition is that the 1st respondent may be directed to pass orders on his claim for revised pension taking into account the materials that have been furnished by Ext.P4. In my view the petitioner is entitled to an order as sought for. Accordingly the 1st respondent is directed to consider the claim of the petitioner for revised freedom fighter's pension in the light of the documents which have been furnished by him. Orders shall be passed as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months of receipt of a copy of this judgment. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE mt/- Page numbers
