JUDGMENT The petitioner retired as a Upper Division Clerk (Higher Grade) on 31.5.2001 from the Chalakudy Municipality. He is aggrieved by the fact that he has not been given the Commuted Value of Pension or the Pay Revision Benefits as such. 2. By Ext.P8 order, the Director of Municipal Administration has sanctioned pension and Death cum Retirement Gratuity. An amount of Rs.60,950/- was disbursed to the petitioner as Death cum Retirement Gratuity and an amount of Rs.3,400/- is treated as the liability of the petitioner towards the Chalakudy Municipality. Subsequent to Ext.P8, the petitioner has submitted Ext.P9, before the Director of Municipal Administration, giving the details of other claims, but the Director is yet to take a decision on Ext.P9. 3. In the result, after having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, the writ petition is disposed of directing the 2nd W.P.(C).NO.32331/04 :: 2 :: respondent-Director of Municipal Administration to look into Ext.P9 and such other matters that relevant and take a decision thereon, in accordance with law, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
