Once this Court would find that the pension payment order in favour of the petitioner was issued on 15.10.2014, there should be now no difficulty for the Treasury Officer in making payment of pension as per the PPO issued by the office of the Accountant General.

In that view of the matter, this Court would direct the concerned respondents to ensure that the payment of entire retirement benefit to the petitioner in terms of the PPO dated 15.10.2014, as contained in Annexure 1, including commuted value of pension as per authorization made by the Accountant General in its order dated 15.10.2014 (Annexure 2) must be made

Patna High Court CWJC No.2497 of 2015 (2) dt.10-02-2015 to the petitioner and if any formality is to be further completed, that must be done by the concerned authority so as to ensure that the benefit of all the retirement benefit to the petitioner as admissible and payable is made available to her within a period of three months from the date of receipt of this order by the concerned authority.

With the aforementioned observation and direction, this application is disposed of.
