P (C) No. 9582 of 2009 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 3rd April, 2009. J U D G M E N T The petitioner retired from the service of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation on 31-12-2008. He seeks out of turn payment of the DCRG and commutted value of pension due to the petitioner on the ground that he requires large sums of money for treatment of his chronic kidney disease. 2. Learned standing counsel for the Corporation does not dispute the genuineness of the claim of the petitioner. 3. A Division Bench of this Court has held that for treatment of serious disease of retired employee or his spouse of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation, out of turn payment is permissible. In the above circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to disburse the DCRG and commutted value of pension due to the petitioner out of turn ,as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. However, I make it clear that this payment shall not be out of the ten percent set apart for paying off the retirement benefits in accordance with the priority of the date of retirement but shall be out of other funds of the Corporation.
