JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI ORAL JUDGMENT Date: 09-07-2015 It is rather unfortunate that only when petitioner dies and the Court orders for personal appearance of the Sub Divisional Officer, Sadar, Munger that his administration wakes up and expedites the matter.

The Sub Divisional Officer, Sadar, Munger, who is present, is saddled with the responsibility to see that all benefits, which are required to accrue to the widow, must accrue and if any bottlenecks are created, it should be ironed out.

Writ application is disposed of with above direction.

Patna High Court CWJC No.16100 of 2014 dt.09-07-2015 2 / 2 The personal appearance of the Sub Divisional Officer, Sadar, Munger, is dispensed with in view of the inputs provided in the counter affidavit.
