PER COURT :- 1.

The petitioner claims retirement benefits. Some of the benefits seems to have also been sanctioned, but are not paid. Learned counsel appearing for respondent No.5 Municipal Council submits that, because of financial constraints, the respondent No. 5 Municipal Council is not in a position to pay the dues. It would take some time for the Municipal Council to pay the admitted dues to the petitioner.

BENCH AT AURANGABAD (2) WP NO.7974/2014 2.

It appears that, the petitioner has retired on 28.2.2014. It is trite to say that, retiral benefits are not a bounty, but it is hard earned amount of an employee. It also appears from the letters issued by the Chief Executive Officer (page nos. 12, 13, 14) that some of the dues are admitted and the respondents are bound to pay said amount. 3.

In the light of that, we pas the following order. 4.

The respondents shall pay the all legitimate dues of the petitioner as is admitted by them expeditiously and preferably within a period of six (6) months from today along with interest at the rate of 6% per annum.

The writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
