3. From the counter affidavit filed on behalf of respondents no. 1 to 6, it transpires that all retiral benefits, including pension and gratuity have been paid. Copy of the same was served on learned counsel for the petitioner on 01.11.2017. However, no rejoinder to the same having been filed, the Court can safely presume that such payments have been made.
4. Accordingly, the writ petition stands disposed off.
5. At this stage, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that detailed chart of payments have not been given.
6. Be that as it may, if the petitioner approaches the authorities with a representation asking for detailed calculation chart with regard to payment made under various heads, the authorities concerned shall furnish the same.
