This writ petition has been filed on being aggrieved by the delay in the matter of disbursement of pensionary benefits. The learned Standing Counsel appearing for the first respondent submitted that the delay in the matter of disbursement of retiral benefits is on account of the failure on the part of the second respondent to forward the schedule of establishment and also the Liability Certificate/ No liability Certificate in respect of the petitioner. It is further submitted that earlier on receipt of application from the petitioner the second respondent was directed to forward the schedule of establishment and the liability/no liability certificate. Thereafter, a reminder was also sent. However, the second respondent has not, so far, taken any step to comply with the directions. 2. In view of the said submission made by the learned Standing Counsel and also the fact that the petitioner has WPC.No.18025/2011 : 2 : retired from the service as early as on 18.8.2009, I am inclined to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the second respondent to forward the schedule of establishment and also the liability/no liability certificate in respect of the petitioner, expeditiously, to the first respondent, at any rate, within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of copy of this judgment. On receipt of the schedule of establishment and LC/NLC the first respondent shall take appropriate steps for disbursement of the retiral benefits legally payable to the petitioner expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of one month thereafter. To enable the second respondent to comply with the directions in this judgment, the petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the second respondent. Sd/- (C.T.
