This application is, accordingly, disposed of. W.P.(C) 7561/2019 Vide the present petition, the petitioner seeks mandamus and direct the respondents to update and revise the pension of the petitioner after considering the letter/representation dated 13.05.2018 and 01.03.2019 which are at page 110 to 114 of the writ petition.
