JUDGMENT Petitioners seek a direction for payment of arrears of pay revision and leave salary surrender amount. The petitioners retired from the service of the KSRTC on 30.11.2008 on superannuation.

There is no reason to delay the payment of terminal leave surrender and also for release of dues in terms of pay revision order. Under such circumstances, Ext.P6 & P7 are quashed and it is directed that all retiral benefits due to the petitioners by way of terminal leave surrender will be paid within two WPC23698/09 -: 2 :- months from now and arrears due on revision on the basis of the pay revision will be released within four months from today. The writ petition is ordered accordingly. THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, JUDGE. Sha/031009
