1. Heard.

2. The grievance of the petitioner is that the petitioner has retired from the services on 31.03.2018 from the office of respondent No.2. It is stated that till date the earned leave encashment and the GPF are not being paid despite several circulars exists, which is issued by the government that on the date of

retirement the entire dues should be made good.

3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner, therefore, had made the representation to the respondents No.1 & 4, however, the same is not been decided.

4. Perused the documents and the various circulars. It is not in dispute that the petitioner has retired on 31.03.2018. It is obvious that when a person retires then the retiral dues should have been paid forthwith. However, since by the averments of the petition it shows that the retiral dues is not been made good, therefore, at this stage considering the limited prayer of the petitioner, the petitioner is further given a liberty to make afresh representation along with all the relevant circulars to the respondents No.1 & 4 within a period of 15 days from today. On such representation being made, the same shall be decided by the said respondents within a further period of 45 days from the date of receipt of the representation.

5. With the aforesaid observation, the writ petition stands disposed of. Sd/- Goutam Bhaduri Judge Ashu
